Whether it's on the grill, on the stove or in the crock pot....This is always a favorite!!!

To 1 lb. of cooked meat....

1/2 cup catsup
tbsp. white vinegar
1/4 cup brown sugar (more if you like it sweeter)

Great for sloppy joes, pulled pork, ribs, chicken....whatever! Add some "hot" spices if you like it hot. Don't forget to add water whenever it's looking dry!!! Add more or less of the ingredients till you find the taste you like!
