No more Sweet Baby Ray's for me!

[daniels]

High fructose corn syrup + corn syrup + molasses + sugar ?!?!?! I may as well add a little tomato paste to a bottle of pancake syrup.

I would say enough is enough but this is far too much!

Agree

Sad to see but yes, I agree

I never much cared for Sweet Baby Ray's even when I wasn't worried about my sugar intake. But between the sweetness and the price, it's very popular. I haven't tried it, but they do have a sauce with no added sugar...

We gave up on most store bought brands as most have high fructose corn syrup as the first ingredient. We've been using the Melinda's as it doesn't use it and also is lower in salt. That or make our own.

We have it in the house, but use very little if/when we do use it.
Last ribs I made had just S&P on them and were great.

I will have to try that. I like some of the sugar free options like G.Hughes brand, they are great straight from the bottle. It is when they are cooked with that the aspartame taste really comes out.

Tomato paste and pancake syrup? I'd hit it.

I've been using the G. Hughes sauces and I mostly serve sauces at the table, so I only warm them in the micro. But before I glaze or add some to wrapped meats, I will add a little agave nectar.

Accidently bought some of the NO SUGAR ADDED. wife wants to keep it but personally I would throw it out. She was complaining it still has fake sweetener of some kind, I will ask her when she gets home.

So many good recipes out there. Too many to not make your own. I adopted Tom Jackson's (ATBBQ) with a couple of minor tweaks.

I have a very old BBQ sauce recipe that was carried west on a wagon train....it uses pureed raisins for the sweetness. It is very good and thick. Great for a glaze.

I'm a big fan of the G Hughes sauces

Some of their salad dressings are amazing too.

I avoid the "sweet" sauces no matter the source.

G Hughes uses sucralose (Splenda). That stuff isn't much better than HFCS when it comes to inflammation.

BTW, Aspartame is the worst to me. I had to cut it out of my diet due to aching hands

SBR sugar free uses Allulose which actually is a naturally occurring low calorie and low glycemic sweetener similar to Erthrytol, not chemically, but how your body processes it.

I just used the last of my SBR's this past week, and decided I need to find a way to make my own. I've tried several recipes over the years and was never happy. Not a fan of ANY of the artificial sweeteners. Reading this thread I had a thought of reducing fresh apple cider as the sweetener for a bbq sauce. Hmmm.

I have made my own in the past, the main problem is we don't use that much so it will go bad.

Great point, Cliff. Hmmm. I might have to use vinegar and whiskey in the ingredients as preservatives.
