Rootin' Tooin' Sweet & Sassy Sauce image

Shhhh. The secret ingredient in this quick cooking sauce is root beer! This is a sweeter style sauce, but still very versatile. Stir into pulled pork for BBQ style sandwiches, use as a glaze on grilled chicken breasts or even wings. It is ideal for last minute gifting. Presented in a canning jar with a silcone basting brush or grilling tools it makes a nice hostess gift. Created for the Craze-E Contest --Gift Ideas.

This sauce is a bit too spicy for my taste. I would recommend using less cayenne pepper.
