Part of a series… This sauce (Grand Finale) is pictured at the far right with diced jalapenos, pepper seeds, and more chunks in general. This sauce is just like the original Royal Fireworks sauce and is marketed as a Fiery Sweet Crescendo. Tangent: I was looking for a music tie-in for the first Royal […]
Uncle Kenny’s Spicy BBQ Sauce (3/5)
If I were reviewing blindfolded on a piece of cooked meat with this sauce, the score would be different as it’s pretty tasty. But as I’ve always done, I try to balance my reviews evenly across the outside of the bottle and the inside of the bottle. The outside needs to tell me the basics, […]
Phil’s Dream Pit Sweet Fire BBQ Sauce (4/5)
Phil’s sauces come from Phil, the owner of Phil’s Dream Pit http://www.philsdreampit.com/ in Kingsport TN and this sauce is a spicier rendition of their Original Sweet Sauce. Like the name implies, the sauce balances sweet and spice. The sweet component is a fairly standard KC style flavor that is strongly reminiscent of a spiced ketchup […]
Black Tooth Inn Grilling Salsa – Spicy (4/5)
Like, the Mild equivalent, this sauce has great qualities – excellent design/label, all natural, great flavor, and provides a spicy kick for those who seek something hotter. It adds habanero and is described as Arbol Habanero which translates to Habanero Tree. The details and special effects and label details are great – great copy-writing, design, […]
J Dogg Phair Thought You Knew BBQ Sauce (5/5)
This sauce was created in 1988 by Jim Phair in Denver, Colorado at the prodding of his friends who he wanted to show friends what a BBQ sauce could be. He got the nickname J Dogg because he was always “dogging” other BBQ sauce makers for their lack of originality and quality. The packaging was […]
Slow Poke Spicy Apple (5/5)
I opened the box and immediately liked this bottle. Although it may be a little over-designed with stylized fonts that are a little tough to read, the combination turtle/smoker is fantastic. Where can I buy a walking turtle smoker right now?! When I opened the bottle, it hit my nose with two of my favorite […]
Farm2Market Foods Sonoran Style BBQ Sauce (5/5)
I am pleased to review Arizona-based Farm2Market Foods’ Sonoran Style BBQ Sauce. First off, what is Sonoran style? Sonoran-style indicates it is related to a region in Mexico that borders Arizona to the South. Sonoran-style generally indicates “Mexican food” but one can find a lot of references to uniqueness of the region in terms […]
Okie Steak House Barbecue Sauce (4/5)
When I first heard of and saw this bottle of BBQ Sauce from Okie’s Steakhouse, I was a bit skeptical. I’ve had other BBQ Sauces from companies known for “steak sauce” and I really didn’t care much for it. So my expectations were very low. But when I tried this sauce, and then cooked with […]
Grillside Downtown Heat BBQ Sauce (4/5)
Like the Suburban Sweet and Hometown Heat varieties, the Downtown Heat barbecue sauce from Grill Side is packaged professionally with a great label and bottle. Like the sweet variety, the sauce had a lot going on – chili powder for a real pepper taste, molasses for a dark rich sweetness, and a little extra bite […]
Stubbs Sweet Heat BBQ Sauce (3/5)
This new sauce from Stubbs combines the flavors of molasses, brown sugar, and chipotle to create something with a little heat and a little sweet kick that will give your tastebuds a lot of flavor to work with. As with all of the Stubbs products, they use very high quality ingredients and are certified gluten-free, […]
