If I grab any old plain bbq sauce off the shelf its Kraft Original. You can often get a small bottle for like $1-$1.50.
Other than being sweet it's pretty standard and doesn't get to crazy like many of the others. It isn't even as sweet as a lot of the others.
In these parts of TX Head Country is another option that you crab off the shelf if it's there. That is better but cost more.
I've learned that when doing crock pot cooking even the nastiest bbq sauce breaks down and mellows out over 8 hours of crockpotting so I buy whatever is on clearance for that, BUT for cheap and all around decent off the shelf Kraft Original.
NOW, with all of that out of the way none of those come close to Rudy's and that style of TX bbq sauce. It is half as sweet but still a good amount of sweetness. It is savory, and has a little kick to it on top of a very good flavor profile that has enough of other stuff to go well with bbq. I think they put a touch of oregano in it and some other stuff that in small amounts adds so much character while still being subtle!
I love Rudy's sause!!!
