- Place the brown sugar and ketchup in a bowl and mix well. Add the vinegar, mustard, hot sauce, paprika, pepper, salt, Worcestershire and 1 cup water and continue to mix until well blended and the sugar has dissolved.
- Melt the butter in a pot, then add the flour, stirring until smooth. Cook for 3 minutes. Add the milk, cream, salt and pepper. Cook on medium heat, stirring often, until thickened. Turn off the heat and add the cheese. Stir until melted.
