• ¼ cup brown sugar
• 3 T Worcestershire sauce
• 1 T my chili powder, recipe to follow
• 1 T cumin
• 1½ t coarse salt
• 1½ t coarse pepper
• ½ t cayenne pepper

Combine all in a pot and heat through, stirring regularly. Slightly simmer, do not boil.

Chili Powder recipe...I use this in everything...

• 1½ cup smoked paprika
• 2 T Ancho chile powder
• 1 T oregano
• 1 T garlic powder

New favorite. Saw this at Grocery Outlet and used on some ribs yesterday. So good I went back and bought 2 cases. They seem to have discontinued it or it was a test marketing sauce since its not on their website.

If Ace hardware counts as store bought, I'm gonna go with Meat Mitch Whomp! BBQ sauce bought off the shelf

Two cases. lol. That's gotta be some serious good bbq sauce. The bottle shape looks a lot like my favorite whomp sauce.

cases 6 bottles. Add to the collection for when I don't make my own. When I fire up the smoker I share with friends and neighbors as its the same amount of work to do 1 rack or 5. Never have a shortage of takers and everyone liked the results with this sauce.

I don't know if it's been mentioned yet but Dukes makes a yellow and red sauce. Both are pretty good

The dukes hickory moonshine BBQ sauce is the bomb

Don't think I tried that one yet, but I'll look for it next time I'm at the store. Thanks

Right here.

I used to doctor up a basic store brand sauce to make it my own but got tired of it gelling up due to the main ingredient being high fructose corn syrup. I found Stubb's that doesnt have corn syrup and has a great flavor that needs very little doctoring. All their flavors are pretty good.

Sticky Pig is hard to beat.

I just used the sticky pig mustard sauce as a base for a double smoked ham glaze yesterday . Added brown sugar , maple syrup , nutmeg , honey and some allspice .
Gonna need to find the other flavors .

I found Country Bob's at the store the other day and tried it for the first time. I enjoyed it. It is thick, a bit sweet and has a nice black pepper kick.

I like Country Bobs when I go to one of the Greek-Style pizza-steak restaurant and get one of their cost effective steaks.

This sounds good. I will definitely try this

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.

Don't use much sauce, but use Stubbs or Sweet Baby Ray when I do.

 

[Dustin Dorsey]

Stubbs for regular store bought. I just wish it didn't have the liquid smoke in it and it'd be perfect.

A favorite in this state is Cooky's. That's the most godawful excuse for barbecue sauce I've ever tasted. Talk about thick and sweet, it seems to be made for using on pancakes. Absolutely disgusting!!!

I will agree with you on that. I met Speed Herrig once with an event through the Iowa BBQ Society, he seemed like a decent guy and raised a lot of money for the community but man, I just don't like that sauce.

 

[nursewizzle]

Wife bought a bottle of SBR no sugar added and I have to admit that is really good.

I really enjoy SBR but I did NOT like the no sugar added version.

 

[nursewizzle]

A looooooong time ago I used to like Sadler's sauce on brisket. They do not sell that anymore.

Probably now, I'm not sure. I mostly buy SBR. It's not my favorite but it seems to be what everyone else likes.
