'The secret is in the sauce'!
~from the film 'Fried Green Tomatoes'


AI Overview
The meat in the special barbecue sauce in the film Fried Green Tomatoes (1991) was the body of the abusive husband, Frank Bennett.
In the film, Frank Bennett is killed by Sipsey (the cook at the Whistle Stop Cafe) in an act of self-defense. To dispose of the body and protect Sipsey, Idgie Threadgoode and the other cafe workers, including Big George, butcher the body and serve it as "special" barbecue meat to the local sheriff who is investigating Frank's disappearance.
The line "The secret is in the sauce" is a reference to the fact that the meat was human, a dark and clever twist in the plot.


also: "Hog killing weather": This phrase describes the cold, crisp weather typically associated with hog butchering, which was a vital activity for families to preserve meat for the winter. In this particular instance, it was not a 'pig' which was targeted for butchering---

or maybe it WAS, yes... the two-legged variety

GQP politicians are like an abusive husband: they may SAY that they love you,
just to try to 'mis-direct' from their abusive crimes!
