  1. Making peanut sauce again. Not sure if this is the cause, but I only had chunky, and following the recipe, it was too wet and too acidic and spicy. Added another half cup PB and it was great.

    Wow, I just made all three sauces and they’re all a little spicy. Recipes were all designed when I was a smoker, and so maybe my taste buds were less sensitive then than they are now. If you like spicy, go with the recipes as they are, but otherwise, cut back on the spicy ingredients..
