    Very tasty! I didn't use the mandarins, not a fan, used o.j. instead. Cut cinnamon a bit, half the brown sugar,and next time less clove. Will make again. Would be a great sauce for pulled pork! Thanks! - 11/2/10

    Very nice recipe. I'm like things more tangy than sweet, so I put less brown sugar and more mustard! - 4/23/11
