Scott's Soss

This is not a typo, this is how Scott really spelled this sauce. He came up with this recipe many years ago and everyone loves it. I remember when Scott had a lot of us over for dinner one night: our folks, Bob and I, Kym, Bob, and Chad, and uncle Tom. We had a great time and enjoyed the food. This makes a huge amount of "soss" but you can freeze or can some for a later date.
