Henry Bain sauce—a condiment for meat and game—was made famous by a Louisville, Kentucky head waiter named Henry Bain. Mr. Bain worked at the Pendennis Club, which was founded in 1881. The recipe makes about 4 cups, and it may be scaled down. Or freeze extra sauce for another day.

With an Indian-style chutney, the flavor might seem exotic, but it balances nicely with the remaining ingredients. The sauce includes some tomato-based sauces, steak sauce, some Worcestershire, and a bit of hot sauce. It’s a bold sauce that goes nicely with steaks, chops, and lamb. Or serve it as an appetizer spread over a block of cream cheese. The cream cheese and Henry Bain sauce spread is great on crackers or crostini. You could even serve it as a dip with crispy chicken wings, fried cheese, beef empanadas, fries, or onion rings.
