Best store bought barbeque sauce

[TiderinVA]

I've tried a number of them over the years but my fav's:

1. McIlhenny Farms (the folks that make Tabasco)-their sauce is so thick, you could pave roads with it and it has a nice bite to it.

2. John Boy and Billy's-has a unique flavor from other sauces.

3. Country's Barbeque-Columbus, Auburn and Opelika. Pretty hot but VERY good.

OK, let's have it. Who do you think has the best store (or restaurant) bought sauce out there?

If you're talking strictly store bought, premade sauce, my favorites(so far) would have to be:

1) Stubbs Mild BBQ sauce--a little spicy for mild, but good; reminds me of Texas BBQ
2) Jack Daniels Grilling sauce, hickory flavor--I use it on chicken and ribs
3) Dreamland sauce--if you live near T-town and you're up to going over to Jerusalem Heights and willing to fork over 4-5 bucks, then you can buy a quart of the famous vinegary stuff that's good with any grilled out pork or chicken

When I think store bought BBQ sauce, my hands mostly home in on KC Masterpiece. Bull's Eye and Sweet Baby Ray's get second choice if the KCM shelf is empty.

John Boy and Billy's is the best I've ran across in the grocery stores, but unfortunately Publix no longer carries it. Jack Daniels is a pretty close second though.

We go to Sonny's BBQ whenever we're in Panama City. I bought a large bottle of Sonny's BBQ sauce the last time I was in Sam's. It's right good.

Had to resurrect this thread. A friend smoked a butt this weekend for the Bama game and had purchased "Gates" BBQ sauce. I didn't think it was bad at all. It's a Kansas City based sauce and had a good "bite" to it.

Gates BBQ Sauce -- he found it at the local grocery store

I have to import BBQ sauces LOL. I still like KC Masterpiece but Big Bob Gibson does mail order. So do these guys and I like their stuff a lot.

I've made my own for a few years now but if I were going to the store , I'd grab the Stubbs variety that does not have the anchovies in it .

Any of you around Columbus Ga know if Pops is still around ?

I've never tried Stubbs or Sweet Baby Ray's. Will have to pick up a bottle of each!

The piggly wiggly here in Birmingham has Dreamland sauce but it takes a bite out of your wallet at 10.99 a quart.:eek2:

Anyone know of any good white BBQ sauce? I tried Bob Gibsons and tossed it in the trash can, to much of a mayo taste.

Sweet Baby Rays is my favorite. I LOVE it on chicken.

Sprinkle generous amount of Stubbs rib rub on some baby-backs, put em in the fridge for at least 4 hours (longer the better), then cook em low & slow. About 15-20 minutes before they're done, slather on the Sweet Baby Rays. When it starts to caramelize (sp?), pull em, let rest for about 15 minutes and enjoy.....slurp . They will make you wanna slap yer grandpappy
