Oh my.

Well, it's not like the primitives discussing fine wines, but it'll do.

Best barbeque sauce, commercial?
 
THINKING of doing chicken, and may ask friend to pick it up at grocery store shortly.

Thanks for suggestions. I used to do it often (YEARS ago,) but I have NO memory!

WINNER OF THE franksolich FOR 2014

1. choose a regional sauce
 
I never thought about this, but I was reading this book (think it's called Foodie Nation), and it's all about how America became more sophisticated with food. One point the author made is that we're eventually going to end up with a regional food system, as people are getting pickier about preservatives, seasonal food, etc.

His example for this point was barbecue sauce. He said there is no such thing as a good nationally distributed barbecue sauce.

It will be pricier, but probably well worth it. Most of the less expensive sauces at the grocery store have high fructose corn syrup as their primary ingredient, so be sure to tell them to stay away from them.

6. I love the range of personal tastes on BBQ sauce. Here's what I look for store bought -
 
A tomato base of some kind - ketchup is fine, imo.

Some acidic tang - vinegar is what I like.

Some heat - depending on the dish, runs from Dijon style mustard to a good hot sauce.

Some sweet - brown sugar, honey, molasses, etc.

3. I like Stubbs, regular
 
I don't like a lot of smoke flavor, so that one is good for me. 

^^^ah, what a Freudian choice, a "stub" being something that.....protrudes.

Myself, I usually do what's in the refrigerator at the moment, and that's this:

Skip the sauce and buy a better cut of meat.

     No shit. They're going to buy a fryer filled with hormones and such, then grill it over old charcoal briquets and rotting particle board, and they get all choosy about the sauce. What a bunch of pretentious dicks.

Grilling yard bird is an experiment to see just how much of a carcinogen it can be turned into. As for sauces, which is necessary (required, really) for ribs, brisket and pork steaks, Famous Dave's Devil Spit is the best commercial sauce out there. Vinegar based, good amount of heat. Not to mention quite tasty, too.

The 17th Street Bar & Grill lets me use it at a table. Even though they're a world class BBQ Champ, their rub is what makes their meat, their sauce sucks scummy sewer lagoon water in comparison.

Wow...me too. Sweet Baby Ray's is my favorite store bought sauce. I particularly love the honey chipotle flavor.

BBQ sauce is what you put on meat after you have cooked all the flavor out.
