excellent.I don't know how such simple ingredients could result in a terrible tasting product for the other poster.

I very much regret wasting my money on this recipe. I thought it tasted terrible so I asked my husband to try it and told him what it was prior. He said it tasted weird. Then I tried all kinds of things to try and make it better. No luck it was just too bad to repair. I always use really fresh ingredients when cooking so that was not the problem.

This recipe was so simply and was a crowd pleaser. I added a bit of Worcestershire Sauce which gave it a unique scrumptious taste. This is my second time making for a sporting event. Thanks for sharing.

Made this for 34 people and everyone raved about it. I did change it slightly to use up some ingredients I had on hand......1 cup tomato sauce and 1 cup homemade BBQ sauce. and of course cut back on the amount of ketchup called for. will make this again for sure. Thanks for a great recipe.

This recipe was so good, and easy. I didn't use the green pepper, or garlic and this recipe was still really good. I will be making this again..

I made this for my daughter to take to her job and people just raved over it. It was easy and went over with a blast. I left the green peppers out because she does not care for them. Wonderful and easy..
