I got this recipe from a co-worker years ago, in the mid-1980s. She brought this to a department-wide Christmas potluck party, and I begged her for the recipe. It's so good! It's one that we make for most of our family parties, and it's always a hit, even after all these years. People have told me they make a similar recipe using grape jelly (in place of the 1 cup BBQ sauce). That sounds like an interesting version. But I've just always made it using this recipe, and everyone seems to love it.
