What's your favorite off-the-shelf/store-bought barbecue sauce?

[Fueling Around]

For something local. I like the Trader Joe’s Kansas City BBQ sauce a lot.

Used to like SBR and it used to be my favorite. But now days it’s too sweet for me.

I think my tastes have changed over the years.

My tastes have changed over the years (typical) but have really gone viral (pun intended) since having the Covid over Christmas 2021.
I lived on Golden Oreos for 2 months as it was all I could taste.
Fast forward a couple months and the switch.
Regular sugar now gags me, but many of the alternates are ok.

SBR for me other than that home made. One granddaughter likes Hunts Honey BBQ.

Can't believe its been over a year, sorry for the bump.

I've been using Kinder's Hickory Brown Sugar for the majority of the summer, really good! Just pulled this bottle out of the cabinet and got more being delivered today.

Another one I tried over the last few months is Bachan's Sweet Honey. At first I didn't care for it, but there is something odd about it that makes me reach for it from time to time.

Sue Bee Honey BBQ. The old Open Pit ws also very good but U think it has changed. The last bottle (a few years ago) seemed a tad off but maybe I got used to the Sue Bee.

Just tried both Kosmos Peach/Jalepeno, and Cherry/apple habenaro. Both really good with the peach taking top honors. I don't see either on their site
Purchased at our local Home Of Economy.

All day long. Any variety or flavor. It’s the secret of many BBQ teams. It can be found in many grocery stores across the nation. I can only find the mustard based in the south but you might be able to find this where you are . This stuff is under $20 for a GALLON on Amazon. That’s a lot of sauce

I do sugar free so love G Hughes Original or Hickory. I found a new sugar free yesterday, Famous Dave's Sugar Free. It's very good.

I like the G Hughes stuff but I find if I try to coat meat with it and then sear it, the aspartame taste really comes out.

Cleveland also has its own “stadium” mustard which they only mustard to go on a hot dog

 

[forktender]

All around, as in on beef, chicken, pork, and seafood?
Kinder's original all the way for me, it tastes great on everything, meat, seafood, and fowl.

G Hughes uses Sucralose instead of regular sugar as a sweetener. Sucralose is not chemically related to Aspartame. Sucralose can degrade when subjected to higher temperatures.

I prefer Carolina Gold type mustard based BBQ sauces. Aldi has a good one but is only a seasonal item ......... Burman's Carolina. Duke's makes a good Carolina BBQ sauce as well.

I have used the Kinders dry rubs for a while now, I never noticed their BBQ sauces. Just now I looked at Walmart and my local one has a bunch of them. I will have to give a few of them a try.

I was trying different ones and I really like the Jack Daniels Honey BBQ. I just bought my fourth bottle of the stuff.

 

[hoity toit]

I don't use sauce much anymore. Local is Rudy's. Aldi has one called Burman's Carolina Style Barbeque Sauce that is pretty tasty.

Rudys spicey is great. Stubbs is good also.

I have used the Kinders dry rubs for a while now, I never noticed their BBQ sauces.

I started with their seasonings/rubs back about 5 months ago, I know someone here gave me the idea of trying them out, I want to say it was civilsmoker posts. After trying those I tried the sauce, haven't had a product from Kinder's that I don't like, and the prices are pretty fair too.

Kinder's Hickory Brown Sugar

Yup . That's good stuff . Country Bob's has a good brown sugar and hickory too .
The kinders Buttery Buffalo is great on wings . Kinder products were 50% off when I shopped last week . I loaded up on rubs and sauces .

I prefer Carolina Gold type mustard based BBQ sauces.

If you haven't tried the Lilly's sauces , they have some great mustard based styles .
I just used the Gold . Number 27 .
