My parents owned an A & W in Ohio three franchises made a Bar B Q sandwich
like a sloppy joe that used Derby sauce If I remember it was a bitterish sauce
Wondering if it had bourbon in it . back in early 60's it came in a jug shaped
container It made the best sandwich Was a secret recipe and was the best
seller he offered
Hi Diane,
I think that the sauce you mean was Glaser's Derby Barbecue Sauce made by Glaser Crandell Co.
There are some old Derby BBQ sauce bottles and other Derby collectibles for sale on the web,
and magazine ads for it can be found. I did a thorough search for this about 1 1/2 years ago
with no success. See: 1-11-2019
I searched again today, similarly with no success. I have never found any indication that
bourbon was one of its ingredients, but without an actual ingredient list, who knows?
