Reviews
Good but would liked to have had the apple flavor come through more. Sauce got a little thick when sitting in slow cooker for a few hours. Just tasted like a sweet sauce with hint of bbq. So was good but nothing people raved about
The sauce sounds amazing but I’m not a fan of ‘cocktail franks’. I’m going to try this with a small cocktail meatball and see how it goes 🙂
Po was on red
Great app. I can’t Wait to make them for my grandchildren. Sauce is delicious.
I have made this twice and everyone loves it. The sauce is different and delicious. Very easy to make.
My family loves this recipe. Love the use of the apple butter.
