Facts About the Sauce:

  1. Barbecue sauces have a long history in the United States, with various regional styles such as Kansas City, Texas, Carolina, and Memphis, each offering unique flavor profiles.
  2. Mesquite liquid smoke is derived from the smoke of the mesquite tree, and it imparts a smoky, woodsy taste to the sauce, reminiscent of traditional open-fire cooking.
  3. The sauce’s sweetness comes from brown sugar and molasses, which not only adds flavor but also helps create a glossy and thick consistency.
  4. The sauce’s tomato base provides acidity and a vibrant red color, making it visually appealing when used as a glaze or condiment on grilled meats.
