    Homemade Best Foods/Hellmanns Mayonnaise using stick blender

    1 whole egg, medium or large size
    1 Tablespoon lemon juice (bottled ok)
    1 teaspoon distilled white vinegar
    1 teaspoon dry mustard (or 1/4 tsp prepared yellow mustard)
    1/4 teaspoon table salt
    pinch white pepper
    1 cup vegetable (canola) oil, room temperature

    Break egg into bottom of 1-quart
    canning jar or other tall narrow jar
    that allows you to immerse the mixing blades of a stick
    blender all the way to the bottom. The jar should be only slightly
    wider than the end of the stick blender.

    Add lemon juice, vinegar, mustard,
    table salt and white pepper.

    Add 1 cup of vegetable oil.

    Place mixing blades of stick blender (turned off) all the
    way to the bottom of the jar, pressing down over the egg.

    Turn stick blender on high speed, hold in
    place at bottom of jar for about
    5-seconds until you see mayonnaise form
    under stick blender's mixing blades.

    Slowly pull stick blender upward until the mixing blades
    reaches top of jar, taking about
    5 more seconds. The stick blender will turn
    the oil into mayonnaise as it is pulled slowly to the
    top of the jar.

    After chilling in the fridge, this mayonnaise gets
    slightly thicker and tastes very much like Best Foods/
    Hellmann's Mayonnaise.

    Makes about 1-1/3 cups of mayonnaise.

    I don't suppose you've got a recipe for Lloyd's BBQ sauce up your sleeve? It's no longer manufactured by Hormel, only available in pre-cooked meat preparations...

    no recipe but just the ingredients from the beef in BBQ sauce. So if we get past the poison it contains

    tomato puree, brown sugar, vinegar, molasses, salt, paprika, onion, power, garlic powder,tamarind, cornstarch, smoke flavouring

    just by reading the ingredients I think its the tamarind that makes it unique. No BBQ recipes listed it that I reviewed.

    Cooked Seasoned Beef (Beef, Water, Hydrolyzed Soy Protein, Salt, Sodium Phosphates), Tomato Puree (Water, Tomato Paste), High Fructose Corn Syrup, White Distilled Vinegar, Brown Sugar, Contains 2% or less of Molasses, Seasoning Blend (Salt, Paprika, Spices, Sodium Benzoate, Potassium Sorbate, Onion Powder, Sodium Diacetate, Garlic Powder, Hydrolyzed Soy Protein, Erythorbic Acid, Natural Flavors [Including Smoke Flavor], Tamarind Extract [Corn Syrup, Prune Juice Concentrate, Extractives of Tamarind, Water, Tartaric Acid, Caramel Color, Citric Acid, Molasses]), Modified Cornstarch, Salt, Caramel Color, Natural Smoke Flavoring, Cultured Dextrose, Propionic Acid, Nisin Preparation (Salt, Nisin). CONTAINS SOY INGREDIENTS.

    and this is probably no help what so ever. I couldn't trace it. One of the best sites is www.copycat-recipes.net

    Thank you, between that and another imitation recipe I came across I may be able to duplicate it. I still don't understand why they would take such an excellent product off the market...

    My favorite premade steak sauce was from Lea & Perrins. It contained citrus rinds and tamarind and was absolutely delicious. But it wasn't well promoted and didn't sell. No longer being made.
