The numbers tell a fair amount of the story, but I’d urge folks to try this. The taste is something for those of you who like the sweet stuff, but the consistency leans towards the “can I stick this meat product in a pool of it and let it sit overnight” variety. For backyard grillers, […]
Pimp Slappin BBQ Sauce
January 16, 2010 By Leave a Comment
Really, really sweet like candy BBQ sauce. Really, really thin like a marinade. But on the right day, this makes a fine candy-like chicken – just think “sweet and sour pork” without the pork or the sour (and with some chicken added). It holds surprisingly well to the chicken… and it may not become a […]
Backyard Grill BBQ Sauce Review (4/5)
December 5, 2009 By Leave a Comment
Before looking at the ingredients, its a full-flavored KC-style sauce with a solid onion-garlic infusion that I would recommend to anyone looking for a flavorful KC style sauce with a little extra spice. Nothing too fancy or different, but tasty. After looking at the ingredients, the perspective changes and you get a different picture altogether…
AJ’s Mesquite Barbecue Sauce (5/5)
October 4, 2009 By Leave a Comment
First impressions can be deceiving. A quick glance at this bottle, and you might be inclined to expect a generic taste from a mass marketer of multiple types of foods – all of which probably don’t taste all that good. But I love it when I’m wrong.
Nebby’s Best Barbecue Sauce (4/5)
September 19, 2009 By Leave a Comment
It’s all about the fire and what happens in it. And although it took me awhile to realize it for this particular sauce, Nebby had this figured out from the start and remained confident that his sauce would stand up to my criticism. This is a story of a sauce that at first glance appeared […]
Rasta Joe’s Sweet BBQ Sauce (3/5)

This is my 3 yr old daughter’s favorite sauce. I pointed to the 15 sauces on the fridge shelf and asked her which sauce she liked best. She said, “the one with the piggy.”
Country Bob’s Barbeque Sauce (2/5)
August 14, 2009 By Leave a Comment
Country Bob is a great guy and a marketing machine – maybe it’s because Christ is his C.E.O. (it says that on the website and all of the marketing materials feature heavy usage of bible passages). However, if one looks past the biblical references, there’s a lot this company is doing right – distribution at […]
Blue Ribbon Carolina BBQ Sauce (4/5)
August 10, 2009 By 4 Comments
A great tasting BBQ sauce from a great BBQ joint in Massachusetts (yes that’s where I’m writing from). This hits the mark with a combination of great taste, smell, and packaging. I love the tallboy-style glass bottle for BBQ sauces. I was a little surprised at how thin it was (not the best for backyard […]
Emeril’s Sweet Original BAM Barbecue Sauce (3/5)
July 8, 2009 By 2 Comments
Emeril is a huge brand that pulls in over $150 million a year in revenue across it’s media, restaurants, and products. This is a minor speck in the portfolio and (maybe because of that) it’s average at best. Another victim of the “large brand on auto-pilot” phenomena. The good qualities of the sauce include a […]
