Quite good and quick too! This sauce uses things that I always have on hand, so I'm pretty sure it will be my "go-to" sauce from now on. It's currently simmering in the crock pot with some chicken breasts. Thanks for posting!

This recipe was a quick fix when I ran out of bottled barbecue sauce while cooking ribs. I didn't have time to simmer it, and it was still good. I added about a tsp of mesquite liquid smoke, and thought the end result was wonderful!
