TGI Fridays Jack Daniels Grill Glaze...is this not the best stuff ever?

I tried it once with great anticipation of a wonderful meal. I've never been more disappointed on food in my life. No flavor there and WAY, WAY too sweet. I want spicy savory Jack Daniels Whiskey sauces on my steak.

A1 blows that TGIF stuff away.

A good steak needs no sauce. But even the best steak in the world cooked perfectly can be enhanced to a better meal with a sauce. (Even if the sauce is a little dry rub mixed with the steak juices).
 
Nothing at TGIF is the best of anything.

As Peter Griffin would say, their food tastes like "salty garbage"

The less to obscure the taste of the steak the better. A1 and the JD sauce overwhelm the taste of the meat.

Edit: After further condsidering the quality of meat served at most chains, this is most likely not a bad thing.
 
The glaze is REALLY tasty... on salmon, steak, chicken, or just by itself... 😱

edit to say i found this at copykat.com

Ingredients:
1 tsp. onion powder
1 Tbsp. Tabasco sauce
2 Tbsp. red wine vinegar
1/4 C. Jack Daniel's Ole No. & Tennessee Whiskey
2 C. packed brown sugar
1/4 C.water
2 beef bouillon cubes
2 Tablespoons Worcestershire sauce


Preparation:
Combine ingredients in a saucepan. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Let cool. Use as a glaze on meat, poultry, and seafood just before removing from grill.
To prepare chicken breasts using Jack Daniel's grill glaze: Use 2 (4oz.) breasts for each serving. Marinate chicken in your choice of marinade for 5 to 10 minutes. Place chicken on the grill or in a saute pan. While cooking, baste often with marinade. When cooked to your satisfaction, brush liberally with glaze. Remove immediately to serving dish. Glaze burns quickly and can be difficult to remove from grill or pans if left to burn onto surface.

Yes, there is a difference between enhancing a flavor and drowning a flavor with new flavors.
 
There is way too much work involved in that recipe for the sauce.

It's not bad though. I love JD shrimp from Friday's. And I love JD on it's own.

that is a recipe that most resembles (if it is not *the* recipe) the jack sauce... meh... it would be interesting to try to make.

I've made it. It's a reasonable facsimilie of what's in the restaurant. I think I just used minced garlic instead of roasting it.

Way too much work? There are a few shortcuts you can take and since when should cooking be a wiz-bam-done kinda of thing? I actually like cooking and trying something new😛
