After trying a barbecue sauce from a competing restaurant that tastes exactly like his, Terry, the owner of Cooper's Old Time Pit Bar-B-Que in Texas calls the Mystery Diners. Charles sends in Mystery Diners Andy and Ben to find out if one of the employees is selling the secret family recipe.
The Neelys trusty Bar-be-que is all fired up, and Pat is itching to get right to it. With recipe for Apple Wood Smoked Chicken, BBQ Corn, Sweet Potato Bourbon Mash and tangy Lemon Bars.
The classic lemon bar with a tender, buttery crust and bright filling gets a few improvements. Simmering the lemon layer first allows for butter, which balances the tart and sweet elements and adds a rich, smoother texture.
