David,

Do you think it would work with powdered garlic instead of fresh? I have tried fresh in my sauces and for some weird reason I tend to like the powdered better. I guess I dont use it quick enough or something. The fresh garlic sometimes gives me the hibitty-jibbities. It's not that I don't like fresh garlic, my wife and love the stuff. Just in my bar b que sauces I don't like it.

I guess I'll need therapy for that.

Tom.

Powdered ought to do fine. I like to have little bits of chunky stuff in mine...plus I just get a kick out of playing with produce!
