Here is the way sauce is made for the famous American Royal cook-off in
Kansas City–or at least this is my take on the subject. It is truly a
finishing sauce and should not be used as a marinade or a basting sauce
as it might burn. Of course, spread it liberally over ribs just off the
grill and serve plenty on the side
