Looking For New Sauces and Rubs to Try

dldawes1 · May 2016

No ordinary Kroger suggestions please !!

I'm browsing through different sauces and rubs and wondering if you have any unique brands/flavors that I might try.

Just looking for that new eggxtra eggtensity to the perfect taste already achieved by the BGE !!!

I don't think anything can beat BBBR for butts....but if you think something is better....let me know.

Has anyone tried the Cackalacky Sweet Cheerwine Sauce available from Firecraft?

Thanks friends,

Donnie

I'm gonna make this sauce next time for pulled pork. Sounds different and interesting. Plus I have a bunch of dates to use up and I bought a 6 of Yuengling Summer Wheat to go in it. http://www.charbroil.com/community/sweet-and-smoky-bernalillo-barbeque-pork-sliders/?redirect_mongo_id=56f1534c6161341563be0500&utm_source=batch&utm_medium=email&utm_content=image-BBQ_Sliders&utm_campaign=03_24_16_SlamDunk_NL

Try Plowboy's Yardbird and Smoking Gun's Hot on Butts.

John Henry has a bunch. Maple Bacon I hear is a good one. Have at it!

You can't go wrong with this stuff. It's better warm than cold. If better on cooked on ribs for the last 45 minutes. Put a first place trophy on the shelf.

Central BBQ was my favorite place when I lived in Memphis. I always have friends ship me some rub and sauces whenever I run out. http://cbqmemphis.com/collections/store

I thought you were looking for new sauces to make. IF you want a new sauce to buy, try this one; http://www.montgomeryinn.com/in-the-know/enjoy-us-at-home/. I used to live in Cincinnati, and loved Montgomery Inn. This sauce is best when heated first.

dldawes1 · May 2016

Thanks everyone !!

@ 500 ...I did intend on new sauces and rubs to buy. I've made some, but am still looking for the perfect flavor. I live in NKY...I love Montgomery Inn !! I really like the "all you can eat rib" day !!!!

Thanks friend,

Have you tried any of the Oakridge rubs yet? Do you have The Fresh Market near you? They have a house line of seasonings - the Mango Chipotle is really good on wings and chicken thighs and the Lemon Dill is a go-to on seafood, salmon especially.

For sauce - I'm very partial to Scott's Barbecue Sauce or Pork Barrel sauces. Also - Trader Joe's has a Sriracha and Roasted Garlic Sauce that is really good.

I would have loved to be there for that event. I also loved Grater's Ice Cream and Skyline Chili. You're lucky to have The Party Source nearby. Really enjoyed shopping there.

Consider mail order. Sauces can be a little pricey because of the shipping weight, but rubs generally don't cost much.

Penzy's has stores all over, so you might be within traveling distance. It is nice because they have jars you can open and sniff what the spice or blend is like. I have several of their rubs, and they are pretty good. Another branch of the family runs the Spice House out of Chi. Their Bronzeville rub is very good. As mentioned, John Henry has lots of good stuff. I too have been happy w. Smkin' Guns products.

gdenby ....My wife bought me a Penzy's $25 gift certificate for Christmas...I had forgotten about it. Theres a store in Louisville.

I'll check it out.

Thanks,

DD

Oak Ridge has a sampler pack that I think is definitely worth checking out.

Secret Weapon is probably my favorite store bought rub on ribs.

THEBuckeye · May 2016

I love Oakridge's "Habanero Death Dust". Great for wings.

bodski · May 2016

@dldawes1, depending on where you're located in NKY, there's also a Penzy's in Cincy. Great suggestions so far. The Oakridge sampler is only $5 and includes shipping. I also had a great BGE dealer in Bentonville AR (The Patio) give me a jar of Meat Church Honey Hog BBQ rub that's very nice. I'm guessing the rest of their rubs are good.

My large egg came from the patio in bentonville. I like the meatchurch rubs, too.

Great people. I was in town on business, saw their sign and took a couple coworkers in who are interested in learning about BGEs. They spent 30 minutes with these guys, even though they knew they wouldn't buy from them since we were from out of town. Because we travel there from time to time, they offered to let us come by their place to cook dinner on the Egg or even borrow their mini loaner to take back to the hotel if it was available. I even left with a bottle of Meat Church that they insisted on giving me. Nothing like the extended Egghead family. (Sorry, folks, if this is off-topic.)

Try this stuff. It's sweet and has a kick. Very distinct flavor. I use it mostly for wings, mixing it with some buffalo sauce +/- teriyaki sauce, although I have used it by itself a few times also.

Those who went to the afterparty at Salado this year will vouch for it.

Foghorn....I'll have to wait until Feb when I'm back down there. $17.65 shipping for $6 bottle....can't do it !

CincyTiki · May 2016

If you are coming up to Cincy, Jungle Jims carries a number of locally made rubs at the Fairfield location. They are near the pig heads :-)

Tbent · May 2016

Can't recommend them because I've yet to try them myself, but I've been wanting to. The Hog Zone

Ok. Here's a different one to try. Lizano Salsa; http://www.lizanosite.com/. It's from Costa Rica. If you can find a Latin American store near you they should have it. In Costa Rica, Lizano Salsa is like ketchup to America. I found it $6 for 750ml.

GATraveller · May 2016

Lane's BBQ has some really great stuff. Their Sorta White is so good I'd drink it with a straw. Mix it with the Kinda Sweet and folks won't know what hit them. I haven't had a single thing of theirs that wasn't worth it.

http://www.lanesbbq.com/

If you want to PM me your address I'll send you some. Seriously.

smokeyj · May 2016

I like all the rubs from here but grand champion is my favorite. http://www.texasbbqrub.com

dldawes1 · May 2016

Here are the three that I have ordered so far....

Oak Ridge Carne Crosta
Lizano Salsa
Scott's BBQ

Thanks everyone,

I buy it by the case.

dldawes1 · May 2016

Foghorn...I'll look for it in Feb, unless something comes along before then.

Sounds great...love trying new tastes.

Thanks friend,

Montgomery Inn is awesome stuff.

GQuiz · May 2016

Try texaspepperjelly.com. Can't go wrong with any of the flavors of rib candy or bird bath. I like the apple habanero on ribs.

Dizzy Pig has a whole line of rubs and spices that I really like!B)
