The locked thread with BBQ sauce recipe intrigued me. I've tried 3 or 4 times to make one and it always comes up way too twangy. I like hot and I like honey. Sticky fongers habanero is my favorite from the store? Who's got some good recipes?
OT: drt and BBQ sauce

Its not homemade but quick, easy and good: add liberal amount of Texas Pete Wing Sauce to your favorite store bought BBQ sauce. I bought a bottle of Donald Lee's sauce at Super Bulldog weekend last year, that particular one was too sweet for my taste so on a whim I dumped a bunch of Tx Pete in there to tone down the sweetness. I do it to most every sauce I try now (after tasting it in its original state first) It kicks up the heat factor some and kills that sweet that a lot of commercial sauces have
For the Delta peeps...is Shady Nook still around? As a kid, I remember seeing it in "handles" at Kroger in Clarksdale. Dipping plain Lays potato chips in it was an absolute delicacy. I know the sauce is a bit of an acquired taste, but I loved that stuff.
Are they still around? And do they ship?

I got nothing. Almost everything I buy is too sweet. The stuff that's not (like Bone suckin sauce) is too far away from what I consider barbeque. I like wickers for cooking, but not for dipping or on something like pulled pork. But when I've tried to make my own it has not turned out well.
I can't remember what I've tried, probably 2 or three. I know the main ingredients were katsup, Worcestershire, garlic, onion, apple cider vinegar, honey and a few other I think. The smell was very strange as well, maybe my vinegar was bad. One of them was a root beer base but it was crappy as well.
