Is this stuff any good ?
Yea it’s pretty good sauce grab a bottle and try it if you haven’t. I’ve got to where I buy a Apple Hickory sauce called Smoky Mountain’s Best every year we are in Pigeon Forge at the Moonshine Ridge store it’s really good and my personal favorite is a sauce sold at Bass Pro Shops and other stores that sell different varieties of bbq sauce it’s called Pappy’s Hottest Ride In Town but beware that sh!t will light you up if you don’t like it hot and spicy I’d leave it alone. Being from the south and have ate my share and probably your’s too of BBQ I’ve always thought of bbq sauce as a cover up bbq cooked right don’t need to be baptized in sauce. My kids and myself use it more as a dip than we do trying to smother meat in it and call it BBQ. Back to the original question whatever you are going to use the Sweet Baby Ray’s for give it a shot you’ll most likely be satisfied.
The Sauce is the Boss for a reason. I always lean toward SBR for my go to sauce for anything slow cooked, no matter if it is pork or chicken. I personally am not a fan of anything too sweet on Beef.
A friend of mine in in Maggie valley swears by it......we prefer to make our own though.
If I'm buying a sauce it's normally Sonnys brand out of Florida.

I also like using the sauce for occasional dipping. We enjoy the original John Boy and Billy sauce. Sweet and mild spicing. Good blend. I like it on chicken.
Sweet baby rays is the best selling bbq sauce. I had not heard of it until today.
Nah, just a buddy that lives up there .....he turned me on to a cool Mexican joint up there and I've never forgotten him, the sauce or the Mexican joint.Quote:

I rarely pour any sauce on any of it and if it's cooked right you really don't need much if any......I like the Sonnys as a finishing sauce on ribs.....but even then we thin it out and spice it up a little.
Dumping sauce on great BBQ is like dumping A1 or ketchup on a medium rare piece of waygu beef....it's just wrong in so many ways.
You've been to Maggie Valley? Ghost Town in the Sky?Quote:

Was just over in that area last week we rode over to Cherokee and went up through Maggie Valley, Waynesville and Lake Junaluska then turned around and went back to Pigeon Forge I love that area of the country.Quote:
