So I endeavored tonight to make a pseudo Jdawg. It turned out tasty, just not tasting like the original. Oh well. I'll take good tasting food in any form.
I googled recipes for the sauce and this is what I came up with:
- 3/4 cup ketchup
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 tsp. cider vinegar
- 1 tsp. soy sauce
- 1/2 tsp. onion powder
(I added a couple tablespoons of water to this mix to get a consistency like the original sauce, though, the taste still isn't quite right. I halved this amount too and we ate 4 dogs, just f.y.i.).
We cooked turkey bratwursts and ate them on whole wheat buns with pickles. I was definitely missing the banana peppers and kraut. I'll make sure I have those on hand the next time I make psuedo Jdawgs.
When eaten alongside some yummy sweet potato fries, this makes for an excellent meal! Hope making a Jdawg brings joy to your heart as it did mine! Good Provo memories!
