We made this when we discovered we had no A1 sauce for our steaks at a family dinner. We made the following substitutions due to lack of ingredients: white vinegar for cider vinegar, 1 packet Taco Bell mild sauce for tobasco. We added a dollop of barbecue sauce to give it some sweetness and smokier flavor. Liquid smoke and/or brown sugar would also probably be a good addition to experiment with. Both husbands liked it, and even most of the kids ate it, although it was a little spicy for them. Now my brother-in-law wants to try using it as a marinade for chicken... it will be yummy for sure! We will keep this recipe around, although we will still probably use A1 for steaks. A good backup! Thanks for sharing the recipe!

Great sauce, I added a pinch of garlic power and onion powder. Everyone at dinner loved it.

I was excited when I saw this recipe because I had all ingredients on hand. Once I made it, it was just okay. I had to add a little sugar and honey to get rid of the bitter taste. Oh a bright note, my husband liked it, so at least I didn't waste anything.
