    It makes the BBQ. Addictive sauce. Works particularly well with chicken wings.

    Really delicious. Started making it after I'd put a load of chicken legs and thighs in the oven, then once it was ready, covered the meat with the sauce and finished them off for another 15 mins. Went really nice and sticky with a good spicy kick! I didn't have any cider vinegar or tabasco, so substituted white wine vinegar and worcester sauce. Will definitely make again.

    It's ok but I have tasted better.It was too thick for me to spread on the chicken.Maybe I simmered it for too long!

    a disaster - once cooled went solid - has been stuck in the pan for a week! I'm sure it was my error, but I won't be trying this again anyway.
