    I stumbled across this old recipe above from 2005 while looking for something else, haven't made it, yet, but in case anyone else is interested, I "translated" the ASCII codes above into what was intended:

    1/2 cup cider vinegar
    3 tsp garlic powder 
    1/2 cup brown sugar
    1 tsp garlic salt
    1 cup Jack Daniels
    1 tsp crushed red pepper 
    1 cup French's Mustard
    1 tsp cayenne 
    1 cup molasses
    1 tsp black pepper 
    1/4 cup Worcestershire
    1 med. bottle of Heinz ketchup 
    3 Tbs soy sauce 
    2 Tbs lemon juice 

    Looks like it might be good -- I may try it sometime.

    Looks like Jim posted his recipe and quickly disappeared.

    Any idea how many oz a medium bottle of Heinz ketchup was in 2005?
    Love you bro!

    Glaze, mopping sauce?
    What was it's intended use?
    Looks very good.
    Thank you,

    Looks like a glaze or even a sauce for the table.  In this thread, it said, "As Jim kindly pointed out, his sauce is a finisher, not a marinade."  And in this thread, it said, to someone who was going to use it as a marinade, "I have only used my sauce as a finisher, not as a marinade, ... One word of caution, though. The sauce has a fair amount of sugar in it. That means it will scorch very easily. I think you are going to have to keep the heat down pretty low to avoid scorching and even then it will be a challenge. Good luck and keep us posted."

    I noticed that there were posts referring to @JSlot and "his" "Jim's Jack Sauce," and then I looked again at the name of the guy who posted the sauce, and it's @Jim Slotterback so I think JSlot and Jim Slotterback must be the same guy.  I followed @JSlot's instructions the first time I smoked ribs (I forget what they were).
