1 To make the barbecue sauce, bring all ingredients to a boil in a saucepan, reduce heat and simmer, stirring often, for 15-20 minutes, or until slightly thickened. Makes about 2½ cups. Also good on ribs and chicken.

2 Cut bacon slices in half. Wrap each mushroom with ½ piece of bacon, secure with soaked wooden toothpicks.

3 Dip wrapped mushrooms in barbecue sauce and braai over medium heat for 4-5 minutes each side, or until bacon is crisp. Serve warm with more barbecue sauce for dipping.
