He is credited with creating his namesake sauce for steaks and the local game animals brought in by members for preparation. Numerous recipes for homemade versions have circulated for years and are still widely used. In 2009, the club began bottling and selling the original version. As demand increased, the club partnered with a local food distribution company to sell the sauce at local stores and Kroger supermarkets in the Louisville area and online.
