Ed,

You have a great way to prove your point! I'll take some-O-them naked
ribs! (lol)

I hear commercial cooks use that slogan, the sauce is boss, and that is
BS. I was raised in the sauce is boss culture and do like my sauce but
now it is in a dish on the side.

I was taught to cook chicken on the grill back in the late 60's and the
seasoning was, garlic Salt, onion Salt, black pepper and SALT! I still
love that combo but it is garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper,
cayenne and paprika as a base.
