I love when I get a sauce that combines a great, unique flavor with a powerful and sincere story. To the right of the centered logo and picture you can find this story: David Patterson left his Georgia family farm in 1943 when he was drafted into the Army. Before Christmas the following year, he […]

Review: Lil Hawks BBQ Sauce (4/5)
This is a nicely executed thin yet sweet sauce from Georgia. The bottle appearance is good and simple. It’s a guy holding a man-sized fork that is impaling a massive slab of ribs. It’s a very small batch sauce as evidenced by the lack of nutritional information a UPC symbol and an address – but […]
The Fat Redneck “That Yellow Sauce” (5/5)
I love it when I’m surprised by sauce. It reminds of days going into Boston when I was growing up – a group of friends would pack into the car and spend hours rummaging for deals on CD’s. The joy of finding a gem in the clearance rack or taking a risk on an unknown […]
Review of Big Ed’s Heirloom BBQ Sauce (4/5)
It’s an Eastern N.Carolina sauce made in South Carolina with a story – I love that. Without the recession, this sauce might have never happened. An excerpt from another review about this sauce tells us this story: When Big Ed, a long-time realtor in Allendale, SC, felt the strain of the recession, the family convened […]

Draper’s BBQ Sauce (5/5)
Draper’s BBQ Sauce is a good sauce with a surprise. Owner Shane Draper also has a few surprises too (check out my intereview with him here). I asked him what makes his sauce different, and here’s what he said: As for what makes our sauce different, in a word balance. When you try Smokin’ […]
Dimples BBQ Sauce Review (4/5)
After having read good reviews about it on Big Wayner and Oshawa Ogre, I was really keen to taste this sauce and Richard, owner of Dimples, kindly sent me a bottle overseas to review it. I admit I like squeezable bottles because it’s handier when you wanna pour over meat or plate, but I like […]

Chileheads, place your orders now!
Casual grillers – not sure you can handle this one (I barely could!!)
La Pan’s Fiery Fusion BBQ Sauce (5/5)
I loved the original sauce (Foundation) and this one is basically that same variation with a bit more heat. It’s still a great sauce. So the only thing left to decide if I need downgrade the sauce based on the new mix. I tried it boneless chicken (grilled). – No downgrade, still good. I tried […]
