- .KY BARBECUE
- This is easily the best BBQ sauce I have ever tried. OK, so I'm not modest...
- .PP
- I originally got it from a friend who says it is a family secret. I have
- modified it a little to make it spicier and a little thicker. I cut back on
- the Ketchup and substituted the tomato paste. I also upped the tabasco and
- added the cayenne pepper. I added the cocoa which gives it a different taste
- as well. It is a good basic sauce that can be varied to suit the meat. As
- it is, it is great on chicken.

- .SK 2
- Take a won-ton wrapper in your palm, forming a bowl. Put a glob of
- cheese mixture on the wrapper (not too much, but don't skimp) and
- gather the corners to make a little bag. I call this the "Crab Bomb".
- Now (very important!) refridgerate the bombs until the chese is solid.
- .SK 3
- Heat your oil to the usual temperature for frying won-tons (I can't
- remember what is normally used -- he mentioned *low heat*, but if
- that's compared to the 700 degrees Farenheit they usually use...)
