Cocktail Sauce

1 cup chili sauce

1/4 cup ketchup

3 generous tablespoons prepared horseradish

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Pinch of onion powder

Freshly ground black pepper

1. For the cocktail sauce, in a medium bowl. whisk together the chili sauce, ketchup, horseradish, lemon juice, and onion powder. Season with pepper to taste.

2. Refrigerate the sauce for at least 1 hour to blend flavors. May be stored for up to 3 days.

Directions

1. Prepare a moderately hot hardwood or charcoal fire, or preheat a gas grill.

2. Place the unopened clams on the grill, cover, and cook just until the shells begin to pop open, 5 to 10 minutes. Pry off the top shells, daub the clams with cocktail sauce, and top each clam with a small piece (about 1/2 teaspoon) of butter.

3. Continue to cook on the grill until the clams are hot and the tops are lightly glazed with sauce and melted butter, about 5 minutes longer.

4. Serve with lemon wedges and a small bowl of cocktail sauce for dipping, if desired.
