The sauce is just part of the picture

"Sometimes I eat ribs nekkid, but if company's coming, I usually put on pants." Craig "Meathead" Goldwyn

The old saw is that the secret to great barbecue is the sauce. Not so.


The sauce is just part of the picture. But there's no doubt that a good sauce can really make the meat taste better. And it can cover up your mistakes

t categorizes sauces into 3 types: sweet, tangy, and fiery. There are some recipes at the end, but I would not take these very seriously. It serves as a good starting point for those who would like to explore the wonderful world of bottled BBQ sauces. For example, I discoverd Gates from this book, and it explains why I hate KC Masterpiece and Bull's Eye, but like Kraft. It is also a good resource to help you avoid those BBQ sauces that taste like pancake syrup with a little ketchup and tabasco sauce.

Apply the sauce after the meat is ready. Sauces, especially sweeties, will burn if you add them too early in the process and they can prevent the smoke from penetrating the meat. Penetration is good. Sauces will also generate steam when they heat up and steam can make your meat mushy. So apply the sauce at the end of the cook, just long enough to heat it and cook it without burning it. Some sauces are great right from the bottle, but most sauces benefit from baking on the meat. If you are cooking over indirect heat, low and slow at about 225F, you can add the sauce about 30 minutes before removing it.
