I was recently asked by someone if I had a recipe for a clone of Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ sauce. He was unable to find it locally. I haven't made/tried it, but it looks like it might be close. Not sure if it'll give the same dark color as the original. Also included here is a Rub recipe this is supposed to be secret...Hmmmmm? Haven't made it either, but ingredients look right.
