Made these for Freezer Tag 2008. All the family loved the flavour of this recipe and I thought the sauce amount was just right, I would not have liked it with less . I followed the recipe exactly as stated but made double and dumped into bags and put in the freezer. I tried two ways to serve - First lot I let thaw overnight and cooked in oven and it turned out perfectly. Second lot I had frozen in an oven-ready bag and took this straight from the freezer and put it in the crockpot on high, with the addition of a cup of water, this turned out great too.
