When I refer to barbecue, you imagine a sauce that is...

Tomato, but I prefer vinegar based hot sauce.

Hrmmm... clicked "vinegar-based," but my vote wasn't tabulated. I call shenanigans! *grins*

When you refer to BBQ I imagine pulled pork with a vinegar dressing served with coleslaw and hushpuppies.

Now for the Tomato Based...

Kraft's brown ketchup and corn syrup?

or

Savory West Texas Style smokey goodness?

This thread makes me crave meat, which is rare.

By which I mean it doesn't happen very often.

FTFY

when i think of BBQ it is Brisket smoked over night, German Sausage, Pinto Beans (my best dish - they are really orgasmic) and Potato Salad. With a side of Shiner Bock.

Yeah, where are the vinegar votes?

well the first time I attempted to vote it did not work. I had to try again after a few minutes to get it to go through.

even the system knows that vinegar is not barbecue

Molasses, you heathens!

Mustard based. It's the only kind that exists. That other stuff is flavored ketchup.

High five, General Specific?

So when I make barbecue sauce the 3 main ingredients are tomato sauce/paste/ketchup, vinegar, and molasses. Where do I vote?

I'll take some of each, please. :sneaky:

I imagine no sauce, maybe some olive oil and unground salt but that's about it.

My dad uses cane syrup for his. He makes the best bbq sauce.

I thought all BBQ sauces were tomato based? Pretty much what Covar has listed up there. I like my sauce smokey, but not too smokey(the meat should be smokey enough); hint of sweetness (molasses or honey - preferably molasses); and tangy from vinegar (apple cider); and spicy/hot, but not mouth-numbing.

Sounds about right to me.

best damn sauce to be put in a bottle.

I was watching something on the Food Network and they started talking about a region where barbecue was always mustard based. I'd never heard of such a thing, but it looked damned good. After a bit of Googling, I came across vinegar based recipes with no tomato or mustard at all. Thought I'd see just how common this is amongst our crowd here.

I've been dipping in the hot and spicy Stubb's lately, and it is damned good. Never had it before this.

Actually, SC has the mustard-based sauce on shredded pork. It's good, but NOT barbecue.

Why not? I never knew any other definition of the word growing up. In SC, no one calls it "pulled pork". I never heard that term until I heard someone from out of state say it.

It's meat smoked over an open fire. That's pretty much the dictionary definition, silly Texan.

Think about this, when you go into Applebee's or the like and order barbecue, what do you get? Beef w/ a red sauce.

That just means everyone outside of SC is wrong.

This is BBQ

I say again:

wait, you mean you use BBQ sauce for cooking? Wow, I always wondered why it was right there in the store shelves, without any kind of black packaging.

When you say BBQ I think of my grill. And drinks.

Nothing I can't cook on my grill, sauced or otherwise after I've had enough drinks.

haha, i see what you did there.

Stubbs is good, but not as good as Boomer-Q!

It really is good!

You damn 'mericans argue over the silliest things.

My worldview allows me to accept and enjoy all barbecue, regardless of color or creed.

I, too, accept all paths to barbecue.

I still think there should be a molasses and brown sugar option.

Oyster Sauce.

A sauce that should never be used, as hot sauce is always a better alternative.

Bourbon

You lost me at Applebee's. A corporate kitchen run by guys in lab coats do not know proper Q.

They'd probably call it bugball or something.

No, no.. YOU renamed football, it was already football way before you decided to call it soccer. YOUR football is the one that has the wrong name... THEY BARELY EVEN USE THEIR FEET. You should call it "armored rugby, but gayer" or something. That's a catchy name, could shorten it to Argay.

:laugh: Argay.

Americans weren't the ones to come up with Soccer.

No sauce, only a chunk of spice butter on top of a steak fresh from the grill, along with new potatoes and salad.

Grilling ain't Que.

When we make BBQ sauce we a tomato base, sometimes just tomato paste, sometimes we just use a bottle of store bought BBQ sauce, then you add brown sugar, Boetje's Mustard (Locally made mustard), and a bunch of other herbs and spices and delicious stuff.
