I am on Coumadin (blood thinner) and cranberry is prohibited. Can you think of a good substitute because these sound really good!?

I would think Currant jelly would work! I know the chili sauce/grape jelly combo is pretty good on the lil smokies.

No beef broth on hand so I used 1/4 cup water and 1/4 cup bourbon and added a little beef bouillon. These were excellent!
