This sauce – from Little’s and Lydees Foods Corp out of Chicago IL – has a lot going on. It’s a jerk sauce, which can mean many things to different people, but in general the standard definition says the jerk sauce has Jamaican origins and typically includes allspice and scotch bonnet peppers … and can […]
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 […]
Pappy’s Smokehouse – Original BBQ Sauce (5/5)
A friend got back from St Louis and brought a bottle of sauce with him that looked like it was straight out of the TV show Lost – a Dharma project BBQ sauce with black lettering on a white label. The bottle came from a popular BBQ joint you may have heard of called Pappy’s […]

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 […]
La Pan’s Foundation BBQ Sauce (5/5)
La Pan’s Foundation is a wonderfully complex BBQ sauce with a lot of flavor. The ingredients are certainly remarkable – how about a sauce that combines raspberry, apple, plum, pear, lemon, coffee, cumin, maple syrup, garlic, cinnamon, oregano and more. Truly a cornucopia of sauce ingredients! Usually I’m not a fan of so many ingredients […]
Nephew’s Haban Orange (5/5)
Oh man this stuff is good. It was one of these sauces in my fridge that I kept coming back to again and again and again. I tried it on ribs, chicken, and burgers – and loved it. I dipped french fries and bread and crackers into it too. Once, I took the bottle up […]
