This turned out quite well with a few modifications. I only used 3/4c brown sugar, and I replaced the lemon juice with rice vinegar because I ran out of lemons. The original recipe definitely calls for way too much sugar though

Gave this awesome recipe only a 4 instead of 5 because it uses way too much sugar. The only change I made to the recipe is instead of 2 cups of sugar I used 1/2 and it was still sweet enough. Used it over porkchops; YUMMO!

I made this with homemade applesauce. I also played with the recipe some by adding my favorite hot sauce. I also decreased the sugar. The mix of hot and sweet was dead on! I used lime juice and red wine vinegar because I did not have lemon juice. I put this on meat taken off a pork shoulder that I had roasted. It was excellent.

I have made this so many times and I love it. I made it for a friends pig roast about 5yrs ago and now everyone looks for it. Doesn't take long to disappear. I also had a rib off with my Dad using this sauce (he says his ribs are the best), not so.... I won hands down.

You would never know by looking at the ingredients but this recipe is very good! I added vinegar and it turned out amazing...just depends on if you like your sauce sweet or not. Will use this from now on.

Wow. This sounded weird, but I had a can of applesauce that needed to be used up, so I decided to give it a try. It was fabulous on chicken. The applesauce kept the sauce from sliding off and the flavor is great. Cut the sugar to one cup - no more is needed. Spread lavishly over chicken pieces and bake on 350 for one hour covered and fifteen minutes uncovered.

Okay, so I made this for the first time well over a year ago. I just never thought to rate/review it. I use this sauce on my steaks and pork chops. I really like it alot. It keeps well in the fridge....I think it actually gets better with age (much like myself, Haha).

As called for, I could see how this recipe would be really sweet. I actually flipped the apple sauce/ketchup measurements, so I had more ketchup than applesauce...plus I cut the sugar in half. I also added a few dashes of apple cider vinegar and chile powder. All in all it was great....I picked this recipe in particular especially because it called for applesauce, whereas most recipes call for water. This way, youre adding essential liquid AND flavor!!

Fantastic! I also toned the brown sugar down to about 1/3 cup. I just took a quick taste after it's been in the fridge for several hours and it is an incredible mixture, the flavours really take turns on your taste buds. 5 stars!

On it's own the sauce is ok, but drag some slow cooker Kalua pork through it, and it takes it up to a whole new level. The applesauce was such an interesting idea and it really works. Like others, I also decreased the sugar by more than half and put a splash of vinegar in as well as a shake of dry mustard and dried chopped onion. I'll use it again!

OMG!! This is sooooo good! I was nervous about some of the other reviews, so only used a little over half of the brown sugar. It is amazing BBQ sauce! I cannot wait to make it again with another meat. I poured it over meatballs and baked. Thanks for this recipe!

Good idea, but needs a little tweaking to take it from good to great. Here's what I did: add a couple drops of liquid smoke and half the sugar (and it was still way too sweet). Could replace some of the brown sugar with honey to add a little depth. After I doctored it, hubby and one of the three kids liked it. If I add honey and do only 1/4 c. brown sugar, I think the other two will like it, too. Thank you for the applesauce idea!

I just tried this on chicken and it was pretty good. I did read some of the reviews and followed the advice to cut back on the sugar and use unsweetened applesauce. I was impressed enough to pass this around to some friends and I will probably use this recipe with my ribs later on.

I made some tofu nuggets that I baked up like chicken- let me just say this is phenomenal!!! I'm trying to keep away from eating it by the spoonful:) Like others I reduced the brown sugar by half and it's still very sweet.

This recipe was great! We like a little bit more kick so we added Cayenne Pepper. The apple sauce was a very nice base for the sauce!!

Great recipe - with some changes. I used 1/2 cup of brown sugar due to all the reviews that said it was too sweet (but I think it could handle more - but no more than 1 cup), plain unsweetened applesauce, left out the cinnamon and added about 1/4 tsp dried onion flakes. Really good recipe!!

I happen to have a sweet tooth and I think that this is a great bbq sauce especially on a warm sunny afternoon, with a nice cold beer, some close friends, and of course, some football!

I loved this sauce, but of course changed it a little. I added more garlic powder, threw in some crushed red pepper, and some dry mustard. Had a nice sweet taste up front with some heat in the back. Put this on some ribs I smoked. I think Pork and Apples are a perfect match.
