I got this recipe off a message board. It looked interesting, although I wasn't really sure about the mustard with the rest of the ingredients. But we decided to try it anyway.
It was really easy to make. Pretty spicy because I didn't seed the chipotles very well.
It was really good. D didn't make a sauce. He just used the reserved marinade as it was. Wewould make it again.
