2 1/2 cups Water 1/4 cup Vinegar 1 tablespoon Sugar 3 teaspoons Pepper 2 tablespoons Butter 3 teaspoons Salt 1/4 cup Chopped onion 1 Clove garlic, minced 1 teaspoon Red pepper 2 teaspoons Chili powder 1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce 1 teaspoon Dry mustard powder 3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

Method

Combine all ingredients in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Cool overnight, warm before using. Start basting meat with this at the beginning of the cooking process. Baste and turn until pork registers 170 degrees on a meat thermometer (takes about 20 minutes for country ribs.)

Ingredients

2 15 ounce cans small white beans (with liquid) 2 tablespoons water 1 tablespoon cornstarch 1/2 cup ketchup 1/2 cup dark brown sugar 2 tablespoons white vinegar 4 teaspoons minced fresh onion 2 pieces cooked bacon, crumbled 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard 1/4 teaspoon salt dash pepper dash garlic powder

Method

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Pour entire contents of two 15?ounce cans of beans into a covered casserole dish. Combine the water with the cornstarch in a small bowl until cornstarch dissolves. Stir mixture into the beans. Stir the remaining ingredients into the beans and cover the dish.

Bake for 90 minutes or until sauce thickens. Stir every 30 minutes. Let beans sit for 5 to 10 minutes after removing them from the oven before serving. Serves 4 to 6.

Although the ingredients and proportions used above are correct (use finely ground ingredients only, or grind them yourself), the cooking process is difficult to match as not many people have an oil pressure cooker handy, the following method approximates the outcome fairly well for home use.

Dip chicken pieces in beaten eggs Then turn them over in regular bread crumbs (commercial) Finally plunge them in the flour-spices mixture (above)

Heat oven to 350 degrees Place chicken in a tray and cover with foil (shiny side out) Cook 40 minutes. Remove the foil then cook for another 40 minutes Baste lightly with oil 5 minutes before the end Let stand 5 minutes and serve.
