    Incredible!
    Very close to what my Grandma made (She was a Mennonite) when I was growing up.
    Here's a tip;
    If you want to spice it up a bit you can substitute Salsa in place of the Chili Sauce. I used mild Salsa and honestly there was no difference in taste and the sauce is awesome over accompanying white rice
