What's your favorite BBQ sauce....your favorite hot sauce?

[nap61]

Tallyho,
Being from S.E. Louisiana also, I have to invite you to meet me under the "Dueling Oaks" for disparaging Tabasco.
I do not like food that is too spicy. I only put two drops in a cup of gumbo. When I cook gumbo or jambalaya, I only put a little "bite" in it. Then, I put Tabasco and Tony's on the table and tell guests to "knock your lights out". That way, kids and older folks can enjoy the food.
Talking about jambalaya, I think I will start a thread about it.

Actually, I don't use any hot sauce as much as I used to ever since I discovered Slap Ya Mama's Hot. I use this instead of hot sauce most of the time because don't really care to add vinegar to my food and it is especially good in red beans and rice.


Sorry, but an invitation to a duel can only be extended by a slap in the face with a white glove so I must decline.

Being from South Louisiana I just season with black pepper, but not too much! :laughing:

Tabasco has a ton of flavors now and I like many of them. Crystal is my go to and I have several chipotle flavors as well. Slap 'ya mama shares the shelf with Tony's and I mostly season food when cooking, with cayenne pepper.

My rural WalMart is constantly moving new products to the clearance end cap. This stuff isn't even close to dating out but it simply does not sell. I have a cabinet filled with flavored pickles, hot sauces and relishes that I got for half off.

Recent half off finds;




I use this on hamburgers instead of Ketchup or anything like that. Awesome.


Good on french fries

Yeah, I'm bored today

They had Tabasco on there heh heh

I remember years ago my aunt had a glass jar of the sediment from a Tabasco barrel.

When I eat really hot food like in a Thai restaurant, my body has a strange reaction, like an adrenaline spike. It literally makes me happy when I eat that kind of food.

Not really a add on bbq sauce from what I understand but has anyone tried this?
"Woody's Cook-in' Sauce Barbecue Concentrate" .
I have not tried it but thinking about it.

America's Test Kitchen rated Bull's-Eye Original BBQ Sauce as the best,,,
there is not a store in Roanoke that sells it,,

Sweet Baby Ray's Barbecue Sauce used to be our favorite,, until we found out it is almost all sugar,,

Stubb's Original Legendary Bar-B-Q Sauce is our current favorite,, because of low sugar,
We may switch soon,, the daughters' families like a sweeter sauce,,,
so, I do not know which one to try next,,,

Sweet Baby Ray's Barbecue Sauce sure makes perfect InstaPot baby back ribs,,, :cool2: :thumbsup:

Sweet baby rays makes a whole bunch of different varieties of sauces. I'm pretty fond of boiling pork ribs or chicken wings in water with onion and garlic, salt and pepper, until the meat pulls back from the bones about 1/4" on the ribs, or the wings just get tender. Then we transfer them to a baking dish coated with Pam, and cover them in a mixture of Sweet Baby Ray's original, brown sugar, and honey sauces, mixed about 1/3 of each. Bake them in the oven on low until the sauce starts to glaze over. Then they're done.

Serve them with many kinds of S.B.R.'s sauces. I like their honey mixed with their sweet visalia onion sauce. Experiment! :licking:

We like a lot of different sauces but mostly use dry rubs...
For myself I like to start with Kraft's original and add fresh lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, yellow mustard and either honey or pancake syrup (the honey or syrup makes it stick)...

I frankly do not use BBQ sauce in my cooking; and I make my own rib rub (see Post # 40 I believe). Sharn Jean likes some cooked on her ribs, and Woody's Cooking Sauce is all I will use. It is not too hot nor is it sweet nor is it catsupy. It does not cover up all the things I like about smoked ribs...so yes, it's good!

I'm with you on the BBQ sauce. I like the dry rub & seldom use sauce. I was wondering about Woody's if it was sweet and you stated it was not? Do you add it while the ribs are still cooking or add on after they are finished? I just ordered 2 jars & saw a recipe for cooking chicken thighs in this sauce on the stove. Have you tried that?

Chicken thighs are not my favorite. I have been meaning to try some of the competition recipes, where they skin them, scrape out the fat, re-wrap the skin and then smoke them, but haven't gotten around to it.

I don't like sweet BBQ and Woody's isn't sweet. I cook my baby backs about 2 and 1/2 hours. I start them ribs down, turn them over in about an hour, for about half an hour or so and then back over. When I turn them meaty side up is when I add the Woody's, so it's on there for 1/2 hour to an hour or so.

If you like smoked chickens, try my rubb recipe. I cook them whole. I wash them, dry them, spray them with olive oil and rub them down generously with my rubb. I then put them into a turkey bake-in bag overnight and smoke them just like I do my ribs. They come out fantastic!

FWIW...like I said, I DO NOT LIKE sweet BBQ; but when I cook brisket, I cover it in sugar and let it sit in the frige overnight. I scrape it all off and add my rubb before cooking. Believe it or not, the sugar all goes to crust and you get very little sweet taste added to the brisket.

Reading the thread elsewhere about grilling made me think of BBQ sauce, and our favorite is Garland Jack's Super Six Original. As for hot sauce...the Mc.Ilhenny Co. Tabasco brand pepper sauce...nothing compares....NOTHING.

What are your favorites?

Well, I had been a big fan of Mc.Ilhenny Co. Tabasco brand pepper sauce, for decades I carried a bottle traveling because many restaurants carried other brands. But lately I've been consuming El Yucateco Salsa Picante De Chile Habanero Hot Sauce. Little more kick and burns twice.

I like that sauce also. Tabasco has many different varieties now but you probably can't find them outside of Louisiana.

This is another sauce I really like when I cook wings.
