What's your favorite bottled BBQ sauce?
I'm in search of a new one. I want one that is thick and smoky. A little sweet but not very sweet. |
Trader Joe’s sriracha garlic bbq sauce. |
Stubbs, sweet baby ray’s, sticky fingers? I’m thinking of the ones that I don’t care for as much because I prefer the thinner, mustardy, vinegary, non smoky, not sweet kind! |
Sweet Baby Ray’s is our go-to. |
Which variety? |
Blech. The main ingredient is high fructose corn syrup. |
My go-to is Bull’s Eye, chosen by Cooks Country years ago. |
KC Masterpiece. Like most it’s a bit metallic out of the bottle but great once it’s been heated. |
I like Stubbs. Several varieties. |
Bone Suckin' Sauce, which comes in thicker and thinner varieties. Also sweeter and spicier versions, but we usually just get the original variety. |
Most of those have high fructose corn syrup as the first ingredient. We like Sticky Fingers, original |
Sweet and spicy |
Not Stubbs. That’s part of the reason why I really like it and it also has very good flavor. |
Amazing fact: a poster who is literate enough to post on DCUM is also able to read labels. |
If you like a thicker sweeter sauce, then most of the sauces that fit the bill will contain high fructose corn syrup and thickeners. Even the ones without corn syrup usually have thickeners. I think of them as Kansas City style sauces.
If anyone out there likes thinner mustard based sauces, my favorite is Lillie’s Q Carolina gold. |
