Recipe Introduction
" This is one of least known- but one of the most delicious- Southern barbecue sauces. It is customarily served around Owensboro, Kentucky, where the meat of choice is lamb. The following version is thin, vinegary, dark...and loaded with the flavor of sweet spices, though it's not particularly sweet; It is, however, lip-tinglingly hot."

1/4 c Minced onion
1/4 c Plus 2 tablespoons distilled white vinegar
1/3 c Plus 2 Tablespoons Worcestershire Sauce

2 ts Lemon juice
1/4 ts Ground black pepper
1/4 ts Tabasco sauce
A scant 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
A scant 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
