For a smoother sauce, use crushed pineapple instead of tidbits. Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes and cayenne pepper to suit your spice preference. If you prefer a deeper flavor, add a teaspoon of grated ginger to the sauce. This sauce can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
