----------------------------------------------------

Materials

1-1/2 Teaspoon Black pepper

1 Teaspoon Garlic powder

1/2 Teaspoon White pepper

1 Teaspoon Salt

1/2 Teaspoon Ground cayenne pepper

1 Teaspoon Onion powder

1/2 Pound Bacon, minced

2 Teaspoon Minced garlic

2 Teaspoon Lemon juice [1/4 lemon]

Rind & pulp from 1/4 lemon

1 Teaspoon Tabasco sauce

4 Teaspoon Unsalted butter

1-1/2 Cup Chopped onions

5 Teaspoon Orange juice [1/2 orange]

Rind & pulp from 1/2 orange

2 Cup Pork, beef or chicken stock

1-1/2 Cup Bottled chili sauce

1 Cup Honey

3/4 Cup Dry roasted pecans, chopped

Preparation:

Combine the seasoning mix ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.

In a 2-quart saucepan fry the bacon over high heat until crisp.

Stir in the onions, cover pan, and continue cooking until onions are dark brown, but not

burned, about 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Stir in the seasoning

mix and cook about 1 minute.

Add the stock, chili sauce, honey, pecans,

orange juice, lemon juice, orange and lemon rinds and pulp, garlic, and

Tobasco, stirring well.

Reduce heat to low; continue cooking about 10

minutes, stirring frequently.

Remove orange and lemon rinds.

Continue cooking and stirring about 15 minutes more to let the flavors marry. Add the

butter and stir until melted.

Remove from heat. Let cool about 30 minutes, then pour into a food processor or blender and process until pecans and bacon are finely chopped, about 10 to 15 seconds. This sauce may be used to barbecue chicken, pork or ribs.

Makes about 5 Cups.
