Have finished the 2 gal of CS BBQ sauce, 1 mild 1nd 1 spicy. Now I need to use some of the Spicy Barbecue Sauce Dry Mix I received. How spicy is the mix before hot sauce is added? Closer to Mild or closer to spicy?
Thanks
John

Just taste it. Place a little of the dry mix on your finger and taste it. After awhile you will be able to make and mix your own rubs and sauces. The down side to making your own is that you may not save that much money unless you make large batches. Good luck!!
For me the dry mix comes out about same as the bottled CS spicy. I cut the CS recipe down to 2 pints and make it as needed.quote:Originally posted by jjhacker:How spicy is the mix before hot sauce is added? Closer to Mild or closer to spicy?
The dry spicy is the same stuff as the bottle spicy.

Huh?? I haven't made any spicy using the mix yet but I am preparing to do so. I went to Sam's and priced the ingredients and by my calcs the cost comes to less than $6/gal
Cost of ingredients: (for 1 gal)
catsup $1.90
tomato sauce .39
white vinegar .20 (est)
molasses .54
Brown sugar .30 (est)
Worcestershire .33
liquid smoke .83
Hot sauce .55
salt .01
CS BBQ mix .40 (est)
=====================
$5.45
A bargain if you ask me.
