Laura, who works in marketing for a large food company, is sent out from their headquarters in Chicago to oversee a BBQ competition they are sponsoring. The competition is held by Jim who runs a restaurant with a famous BBQ sauce. Laura will not only oversee the festival because they sponsor it, but is also tasked with trying to sign a licensing agreement with Jim to get the recipe for his famous sauce. Laura soon finds herself in internal conflict between her mission and charming Jim's reluctance to reveal his secret recipe.
A pretty good romantic movie. The theme is familiar, the big company that wants to take over the small local business.
