UTZ carolina bbq is still and always has been where it's at.

They've got a Yuengling BBQ(whatever the fuck that means) now that is pretty delicious as well.

If you like mustard/sweet BBQ sauce, just find some of this and try it on chicken or pulled pork. It's pretty good. Is it the best BBQ sauce in the world? No. But I've not found a lot of "yellow" bbq sauces commercially available. I haven't looked that hard though, honestly.

Turns out stop and shop does sell Deep River snacks. They're just in the "natural foods" section for whatever stupid reason.

Because why do we need to put high fructose corn syrup in everything, what is wrong with just plain sugar? Not one, but two entire 4 ft sections of nothing but bbq sauce and virtually all of them sweetened with high fructose corn syrup.

I like to avoid hfcs where I can, a quick google search tells me they now think its a lot closer to sugar, but its a fact fructose makes you hungrier and hfcs is 45/55 glucose/fructose; whereas sugar is 50/50. It may not make a difference; I don't not eat things with hfcs, because its in just about everything. But given the choice between sugar and hfcs I'll stick with sugar.

They are nutritionally identical and HFCS costs less. It's not a fact that it "makes you hungrier" any more than sugar. Stop listening to hippy science.

Bro, I live in KC. I grew up here.

I should probably make a distinction between the 'commercial' classification of what a KC BBQ sauce is, and what the local is (at least for me). And I was talking about the former. Most of what people outside of KC are exposed to is that overly sweet "KC Masterpiece" type of crud, and that's probably what I'd classify Sweet Baby Rays as. There are whole sections of this kind of sauce in most groceries.

Now, if I wanted to throw shoes on I could go grab two examples of "more spicy than sweet" KC BBQ, like AB's and especially Gates. In fact, that's one of my knocks against Gates, is that I find their sauce to be a tad bit too spicy for a place that charges you for drink refills (unless they've changed that). Also the people taking your order that scream "WELCOME TO GATES HOW CAN I HELP YOU" as loud as they can is annoying, LOL.

I have both KC masterpiece and Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ sauce in my refrigerator as well as some from Jack's Stack. KC Masterpiece is nowhere near as sweet as Sweet Baby Ray's. I think you are holding forth on sauces that you don't actually eat. KC Masterpiece the restaurant was terrible, but the sauce is not bad and I have eaten BBQ in Kansas City at least 40-50 times.

Vinegar based BBQ sauce ftw.
Click to expand...
At least once a year I do a BBQ for friends and have two sauces - one vinegar, the other not. Every year people seem to like the vinegar one better. I think it might be because it's uncommon here, so it's new and interesting. But I like it, too.

And in re chips - this may be odd - but Aldi's bbq chips are delish - remind me of chips I had when I was a kid and they are super cheap.

Herr's Old Bay DESTROYS Utz Crab.

In fact, so frustrated with not seeing them down here that I just ordered a 9 pack of bags from Amazon - created a craving - that should last me close to a year though I hope.

I don't really care which is sweeter, they're both pretty damn sweet, relatively speaking. And just because I'm not a huge fan of those kinds of sauces doesn't mean I've never had them. I grew up on KC Masterpiece because that's is what my parents bought. We just moved my Mother in Dec and I swear she still had 3 bottles in her fridge. The KC Masterpiece was their idea of fine dining back in the day and that's what my mother would throw on meat she cooked in a crockpot. Admittedly, my mother still makes lasagna with cottage cheese, but whatever. SBR's I've had less, but it's become popular enough that I end up running into it a couple of times a year at least.

This chick I used to work with made lasagna with cottage cheese, because she felt ricotta was too "chalky." I can't even fathom desecrating lasagna with fucking cottage cheese.

I was researching recipes for Lasagna and half of that shit had cottage cheese in it. I can't even fathom why anyone would want to do that to a Lasagna.

Aren't they the same price? Or within like a dollar of the same price?

I'm not particularly a fan of ricotta cheese either (texture, not taste shitheads), but I'll eat lasagna with it. Cottage cheese is just bad all around.

I think Ricotta is kind of bland and shitty, especially on pizza, but I do agree that cottage cheese in lasagna is a little weird although it doesn't taste bad.
