Progress report on the cook of my SECOND recipe:

At 1 1/2 hours into the cook, the GF came home and thought I was baking with Woody's. At 3 hours into the cook, she tasted it, along with some original from the bottle. She reports that the ONLY difference between MY knock-off sauce and Woody's cook-in is that MY sauce tastes just a tad sweeter! Go figure! My recipe has NO sugar or sweetener. It must come from some of the inherent ingridents.

Please remember that my first and second sauce recipes are based on Sorcha's original work - so she did most of the work, I simply refined and simplified it.

The Firehouse wanted Lemon chicken tonight, so the first generation Knock-off sauce will not be used this evening. Yes, I'm bummed, too. But I do feel like Tom Cruise in "Top Gun": I'm a member of a team, and the target is very close in our sights!
