Papa John's® Pizza Dipping Sauces

John Schnatter was only 23 years old when he used 1600 dollars
 of start-up money to buy a pizza oven and have it installed in
 the broom closet of an Indiana tavern. John started delivering
 his hot, fresh pizzas, and in 1984, the first year of his business,
 he sold 300 to 400 pizzas a week. One year later, he opened the
 first Papa John's restaurant, and has become an American success
 story. Today the company has expanded to over 2600 locations in
 49 states and has revenues of 1.7 billion dollars a year. That
 puts John's business in the top three of all restaurant chains
 in overall sales growth, and the country's fastest growing pizza
 chain.
     John has kept the Papa John's menu simple. You won't find
 salads or subs or chicken wings on his menu. The company just
sells pizza, with side orders of breadsticks and cheesesticks
made from the same pizza dough recipe. With each order of
breadsticks or cheesesticks comes your choice of dipping sauces.
 I've got clones here for all three of those tasty sauces. You
can use these easy clones as dips for a variety of products, or
 you can simply make your own breadsticks by baking your favorite
 pizza dough, then slicing it into sticks. If you want cheesesticks,
 just brush some of the Garlic Sauce on the dough, then sprinkle
with mozzarella cheese and bake. Slice the baked dough into sticks
 and use the dipping sauce of your choice. It's a cinch.
