This is excellent on char-grilled chicken or pork. Swab or brush the sauce on the meat for the last 15 minutes of grilling time. Turn often, continuing to baste, to prevent burning.

Ingredients

　　1/2 cup (1 stick) butter

　　2 large cloves garlic, crushed

　　1 cup Worcestershire sauce

　　1/4 cup crunchy peanut butter

　　Juice of 2 lemons

　　1/2 teaspoon black pepper

　　Heat the butter in a skillet. Add the garlic and sauté, being careful not to burn the garlic. Add the Worcestershire sauce, peanut butter, lemon juice, and pepper, and blend well. Simmer for 10 minutes.
