Not strictly on topic, but don't dismiss the mustard and jelly thing out of hand.

For my tiki parties, I often combine some brown mustard and blackberry jelly and put them in a crock pot on low. I toss in a bunch of li'l smokies sausages and stir every now and then. The mixture reduces down to a thick sauce after a couple of hours. I provide a ladle, plates and toothpicks for guests to serve themselves.

This is always a huge hit at parties. The sausages come out sweet and tangy, which balances well with a lot of tiki drinks and the other finger foods I have set out.

(I have some cookbooks from the 60's in my collection just for the humor value. There's some scary stuff in there.)

A new and much tastier take on an old tiki recipe seems to me to be completely on topic! Much more flavorful than the combo I found. Let's expand the original question: Got Regrettable Tiki Food or a Recipe that Improves on Such?
