Memphis Original BBQ Sauce is a new fave of mine.
it’s heat and sweet.

Killer hogs rubs have too much sugar for me, but the vinegar is good. Half vinegar and half sweet sauce is great. My favorite overall sauce right now is blues hog champion blend, then mixed with kh vinegar and its perfect. Heath Riles vinegar is good too.
Not a big vinegar based fan her, but I did just buy two large bottles of Starnes.
Definitely gives pulled pork a bite. ( Generally mix in something else with it)

Rodney Scott has some good sauces.
I’ve tried Rodney’s, Other, and Kathy— all are good but I wouldn’t go with just one. I’d alternate among them.

Yeah, I’ve tried the heath riles too. It’s good. Very similar to killer hogs to me, almost wonder if they are the same. I’ve never done a side by side comparison. But both are good.
Heath Riles has some good rubs and sauces. I'm usually in academy, lowes, or another bbq store every weekend looking for different rubs and sauces.
I like Abe’s. I’m biased. I’ve told y’all about Dixie dirt rub. Well he makes a sauce. I didn’t know. Damndest thing. It’s a vinegar base with a sweetness. Might be similar stuff out there. No idea.
I will say this for all you boys that replied above. I’ve tried killer hogs and it just doesn’t do for me. Chocolate and vanilla I reckon

You don't need all this new fancy stuff. Grab some Kraft original, add honey and cayenne to taste.
It’s so dang thick and sweet. It’s good, but I’ve had to thin it out every time I’ve used it.
or lemon or butter or vinegar or Worchester....or all of the above
Thanks to diabeetus I've had take G Hughes sugar free sauces and mix a couple of them with my rub and a little apple cider vinegar. Before the sugar free stuff came out it was just a little Sweet Baby Ray's mixed with my rub and vinegar.
This, all day long.
There's just generally no need to spend bucks on high dollar BBQ or hot sauces.
With pulled pork, if I'm in the mood, I'll just mix up my version of a simple Carolina vinegar sauce.
Just the vinegar you like with some sugar and hot pepper powder added in. Microwave it to warm in a mason jar.
Adds an easy, light tang to the meat. Love it.
But I also love a good ole sweet mater based sauce.
I like Arthur Bryant’s in Kansas City bbq sauces.
Have to order online unless you can stop by and bring some home.
There’s a small place in Nashville called
Bar B Cutie and their hot sauce and their mustard sauce is really good.
Also like Sprayberrys sauce from down in Newnan GA
Not the best bbq but their sauce is legit.
Dreamland sauce - hot, served with white bread for dipping is hard to beat.
Ribs, not so much.

If you're in Texas, don't sleep on Rudy's sauce. We buy a big bottle of their "regular" sauce (not the Sissy Sauce) and it usually lasts us a couple of months.
