SuckleBusters Chipotle BBQ Sauce (4/5)
Like their other variants, I respect SuckleBusters for their approach towards producing BBQ sauces that are All Natural with No MSG and No Preservatives. It’s made in Texas – the state who’s residents like to go big or go home.
But… I thought to myself… why do they call it SuckleBusters? That’s odd sounding.
Well, the website shows this:
Coool! Like it’s big brother Original, reviewed here, this ones sports a fun label, Texan markings, and a lot of information about what this sauce is going to taste like – except for where it says “HOT.” To me, it has a very small kick (which I like) but I find people have to know a general heat level… I’d give this a 2 out of 5 on the heat scale. Some people may buy it wanting a scorcher – and that’s best left to other sauces. Or you might get people who almost buy it, but they are scared off from the heat. My opinion? Put a little heat indicator on it. Or have it’s Scoville unit’s measured and placed on the side of the label.
The flavor is good although a bit sweet. Vinegar is listed as first ingredient – I’m guessing they used an apple-cider vinegar. The Chipotle essence really comes out strong. For some people this is a flavor that takes some getting used to, but with anything SuckleBusters does, I know it going to be real and all natural. Consistency is right in the middle of the thin/thick sauce scale. Definitely one of the better Chipotle BBQ sauces out there.
