My husband is from Kansas City and loves barbecue. We've tried many brands of sauces and never found one that he liked as much as those from Kansas City. One day we set out to create something, and this is the sauce we came up with. It is a little sweet and a little spicy with a tang. It is such an easy sauce to make.
