Sauces & rubs

That's great, but what we need are comments and suggestions about which rubs and sauces.

There's some good one's out there and some not so good ones.

I do like the Blair's Afterdeath sauces for heat AND taste. The Habenero's from Hell are exactly that. Use caution. Much hotter than those I can grow. Any of the Walkerswoods Jamaican jerks & sauces are excellent.. and HOT. I use them when my wife isnt home cause she HATES heat. I like soaking chicken thighs in the Walkerswood Jamaican Jerk Marinade, then using a little of their Hot & Spicy Jerk Sauce on the side.

Hope that helps some Smokin...

I've been doing some sampling of sauces that i have seen mentioned on the web... So far, my two favorites are Blues Hog and Show Me. Blues Hog is a thick, sweet sauce and Show Me has a nice smoky flavor.

I couldn't find a web site for Show Me. My bottle was a gift from a friend in Missouri...

If you are a jerk fan,Walker'swoods are well thought of in the islands' communities here.

Pimento wood is difficult to find,but hickory is the substitute of choice.

I'm gonna give Cook Shack a plug. The spicy sauce is really good! We taste tested it on some unbiased individuals, from the Missouri area I believe, on pulled pork and they said don't change a thing. Thought the sauce was just spicy enough and had great flavor. Tried it on some people from Illinois too, and the reaction was the same.

I was at a new grocery store the other day and picked up several new types of sauce to try out. One brand was Sauers. Sauers is known around here for mayonaise and mustard, so I figure I'd try their BBQ sauce.

It tasted a lot like automatic transmission fluid, but I didn't see that listed on the lable. Pretty much the same color too. So I guess what I'm trying to say is that unless you like pinkish/purple BBQ that tastes like ATF, you should stay away from Sauers sauce.

Have you ever tried the Jack Daniels range of BBQ sauces? They are pretty good. I like them better than KC Masterpiece, which a lot of people rave about, but I'm not all that partial to.

Cheers,
