     1/3  cup           brown sugar

Preparation:

Let simmer for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened. Makes about 2-1/2 cups This sauce has a nice balance of sweet, tart, and spice. Because the sauce contains sugar, it burns easily, and is best brushed on food just during the last 5 or 10 minutes of cooking. Pass the remaining sauce around the table.
