Some of the reviews complained the recipe was bland. Took some of peb669 advise. Added , small amount of sugar and cayenne, a few shakes of hot sauce, salt, pepper, and some fresh chopped green pepper and onion. Didn't add the sherry. CAME out delicious! My two dogs even beg for bites! I don't mind tweaking recipes to my taste. Actually enjoy it. Sandra gave me a great base to work with!
