My Favorite Commercial BBQ Sauce(s)


 
My family still isn't a huge fan of sauces in general (I'm working on that), but we do use Blues Hog sauces for ribs:

Sauce BBQ Box - Original & Tennessee Red

Each Gift Set includes 2 squeeze bottles. Blues Hog Original BBQ Sauce: Blues Hog Original BBQ Sauce is the perfect blend of sweet mixed with just the right amount of heat! Voted “best baste on the planet” & People’s Choice at the American Royal, this thick sauce has a very unique flavor and...

I use an approximate 50/50 blend of the Original and Tennessee Red, which is essentially what Champion's Blend is (Champion's Blend was out of stock locally, otherwise I probably would have just bought that).

I have a number of sealed, unopened BBQ sauces ready to open and try at some point.
 
Always used Sweet Baby Rays until I read the label one day. The first ingredient was HFCS. Switched to Stubb’s Original.
 
We hardly ever sauce, this one is thin and tangy…..it’s actually pretty good….more vinegar than sugar type.
I use it on chicken and pork, mostly dipping but works as a final flavour layer on ribs too.

Just yesterday I gave the H-E-B store brand Carolina sauce a try. I had a small pork butt in the WSM and didn’t have any pork sauce in the pantry. Very nice mustard/vinegar sauce with a medium consistency. Was exceptional when mixed in with chopped meat for a Sloppy Porky sandwich. Best $2.10 barbecue purchase I’ve ever made.

Its the best of their lineup.
As was mentioned, its a bit on the vinegary side but well suited for chicken and pork.

Went to one of our Costa Rican Supermarkets this morning which have on their shelf the Original and also the Hickory. Problem is last week I bought 2 full bottles of BBQ sauce which should last me until next year:rolleyes:

Two good choices though! Im not married to a particular brand. The hickory flavor is likely a dash of some form of Liquid Smoke.
 
Don't understand all the love for sweet baby rays - way too runny...
I like a thicker sauce that will tend to stay on my meat
 
Does anyone use Cattleman's anymore? About 60 years ago they had one flavor, the bottle had a paper sleeve on it. There were only about 5 choices of bottled bbq sauce back then. :LOL:
