Spring Hill Ranch's Texas Black Jack Sauce image

Also known as "Cattle Drive Sauce", this is another innovation from my neighbors to the east. By the late 1870's, condiments such as ketchup, Worcestershire sauce and vinegars were available in cans or bottles - a blessing to the chuckwagon cooks of the era.

2 small yellow or white onions, diced (about 2 cups)
1 c strong black coffee
1 c worcestershire sauce

BLACK JACK CHICKEN BREASTS ON THE GRILL - CIA



Black Jack Chicken Breasts on the Grill - CIA image

Entered for safe-keeping. Adapted from CIA Culinary Intelligence (Culinary Institute of America). Their Black Jack Barbecue Sauce has been scaled down to 2 cups to fit this recipe. Modified their 1/8 cup chili powder to equivalent of Dee514's Recipe #38558 #38558. Preparation time includes 2 hours marination time, so I did not add additional cooking time for the barbecue sauce to be made in the interim. Apple cider, coffee, Worcestershire sauce, and jalapeno -- isn't that a different combo! I'd say this dish nods to Cajun roots.
