If A1 Sauce isn't quite to your taste, try HP Sauce instead. Good for sausages, chops, bacon, and more. The bottle stands cap down in the refrigerator door, and the plastic bottle easily squeezes out the right amount.
Enjoy!

Having never tried HP Sauce Before, but hearing Brits joke about it on British Foodie Pages (it's reportedly the precursor to America's A-1 or Brown Derby Sauce)... I ordered one bottle of this. Everything arrived perfect. Fresh Dates, Good Condition Bottle. idk if $14.99 was a bargain or overpriced. But I didn't want to order a case and risk not liking it enough to be stuck with 6 bottles.

I won't be writing a bio on the Taste of this stuff. But if you're looking for something more than Ketchup or healthier than Mayo to sauce up things like veggie burgers (which can be dry), chicken nuggets, etc... You'd be doing yourself a favor to check out HP. Worst that can happen is you use it to flavor chili, or give it away to a friend if you don't like it. I have yet to try this out on real meats.

My wife and I both grew up in Great Britain and like in many British homes, this sauce was a staple item in our pantries and probably more popular than ketchup. Its a savoury, but mild, brown sauce that's made from a malt vinegar base, thickened with tomatoes, dates, tamarind, and other spices. It's delicious as a condiment to either hot or cold foods - we particularly like it on sausages (bangers), bacon or chips (fries), but it also makes a really good spread to liven up cold cheese or ham sandwiches. Its a bit similar to a brown steak sauce such as 'A1', but has a thicker, less runny consistency that clings better to food, like a good ketchup does.

My kids have grown to love it and frankly, a bottle doesn't seem to last for very long in our house! So the 425g (about 15 oz) size is best for us - plus, we prefer it in the squeeze bottle, which reduces that annoying little amount that usually gets stuck in the bottom of a sauce bottle! You can find this on the shelf at some U.S. grocery stores and pay more, but given this is imported, these seem to be a really good prices here for the quantities. If you shop around, you can also find variations from this 'original' flavour - such as 'HP Fruity' (sweeter, which I don't think is quite as good), 'HP Bold' (spicier) and 'HP BBQ'.

I noticed that some folks have complained that the expiration (or 'sell by') date on the bottle has passed, or is very close. Don't forget that Brits use a 'DD-MM-YYYY' format, not the 'MM-DD-YYYY' format used in the U.S. so that may be the reason. My recent order had an expiry date of
'08-01-2016', but whether that means August 1st or January 8th is a moot point in my house, as it will never last until either one!

A bit of trivia - as the image on the bottle suggests, the 'HP' stands for Houses of Parliament, where it was supposedly served since its introduction around 1900. And in the 1960's, it had a nickname of 'Wilson's Gravy' in Britain, as the then Prime Minister Harold Wilson apparently doused everything he ate with it!

So, are you buying a traditional, authentic British product here? Well not really any more, as HP Foods is now owned by Heinz and this sauce is made in the Netherlands. But fortunately, they don't seem to have messed with the recipe and it still tastes as good as ever to me!
