Serve hot with coleslaw and cornbread.

I omitted the water and increased the catsup to 1-1/2 cups, increased the cider vinegar to 1 cup as well as using a crockpot. This was served with Portuguese rolls, cole slaw, and potato salad but no cornbread. I added Worcestershire Sauce instead of hot sauceas well as additional cider vinegar.

From Spoonbread and Strawberry Wine.
