This makes a tasty chutney-like sauce you can use in place of steak sauce for basting or marinade. It goes well with beef, pork and poultry, and it's good even served over softened cream cheese for a really different appetizer. I entered it in the state fair and won first place in condiments! —Jacalyn Margittay, Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin
