I like a BBQ sauce with vinegar, butter, black pepper, and a little spice.

Any of you have a good pit sauce recipe for using on mutton?

Thanks.

According to my friend Brook, who is a food historian from Kentucky, this style of barbecue evolved specifically with mutton (yes, mutton!) in mind:

I tried it with pork and enjoyed it very much.

Can't vouch for this for lamb or mutton, but I have held onto it for many years because the sauce recipe is so good. Tas -- thanks for another great link.

Thanks for the link and the page.

Used to make my own from scratch, but I'm lazy so now I take a good store bought and modify. Used to use Mr. Stubbs to start, but don't think it's available any longer. Key to me is that it not be too sweet.

Then add vinegar from a can of pickled jalepenos to thin and spice it up and some powdered mustard. Add anything else that fits your fancey. Heat it to mix the ingredients and serve warm.

Lavaca,we still have Stubbs here.Send me an address + I'll send you a bottle.Best,Randy

Isn't mutton just old lamb? This sauce had better be very good.

Randy, we apparently do too. Saw a jar in the pantry today.

But thanks.
