ketchup vs tomato sauce

[Moon68]

You know, at first I thought the brown sauce was some kind of barbecue sauce, but it turns out its more like a sweet and sour sauce that we dont really have a brand quite like it in the U.S. at my local market. Its like a UK thing that I really really want now but im going to have to make my own im afraid. Onions, apples, prunes, brown sugar, spices *cinnamon etc*, and malt vinegar seems to be the recipe. Think Id like to try to make it with a pear puree instead of an apple prune. 

Thanks for the lesson!

Sounds like A1 sauce

Dates, not prunes, molasses, tamarind, mustard powder, allspice and cinnamon, and Worcester sauce too.  Pears sound good.

It is like A1 sort of but thicker and maybe with a few other things like tamarind. Dad's or HP can often be found in that weird section of the supermarket.

The steaksauce? I dont think that has the sweetness of what im imagining this brown sauce is. A1 definitely has the tang though. Apparently this brown sauce is used in breakfast stuff a lot.

Turns out my market doesnt have it but there is one an hour away that does

Thinking moon might be right now about the steaksauce.

Probably the closest to UK Brown Sauce in the US I think is Heinz 57 Sauce, even though I don't remember English Brown Sauce having some of the same ingredients.
