How Many Bottles of Sauce Do you Have?

[93vpmod]

While organizing my BBQ Closet earlier today, the wife came up and asked, "How many damn bottles of sauce do you need?" I continued to organize and clean, all the while counting the 26 bottles of mostly different BBQ sauces and 13 Hot sauces placed on the shelves.

I then spied the 3 opened bottles in the fridge, knowing that there was also a gallon of Head Country Hot in the basement fridge.

Help me out as I need your responses to make me seem somewhat "Normal."

Winner gets a free bottle of sauce...like you really need it!

Do gallons count as one bottle?

:becky:

I think they should be worth 5 bottles... Next I will get the question about barrels!

Honestly not too many. I have 4 bottles of BBQ sauce and 2 bottles of hot sauce. I usually always have a random bottle of something that I picked up somewhere to try but I mostly have 2-3 consistent bottles to use on various meats. I often will just make my own the day I smoke something, so that doesn't stay around too long.

I don't have too many sauces but I do have an excess of certain dry rub ingredients.

Funny thing us I do not use sauce for cooking, I only serve several choices on the side for dipping.

So I keep a small variety on hand... This is normal for my sauce cabinet..... Rubs in the cabinet to the right.

I make my own siriacha sauce with horse radish from the garden every summer. 7 kinds of hot peppers and home grown horse radish root. Got 5 of 15 pints left in the freezer. Self sustaining and no store bought stuff here.

I bet that is awesome with all of the pepper varieties and the horse radish, can't beat fresh!

That is one heck of a collection. Do you have a favorite one or three?

Same here. I'm not much for sauce but I have about 10 lifetimes worth of rubs.

And I don't have a recipie just a basic base of roasting, grilling, smoking peppers. Add vinegar, fresh garlic (from garden), fresh horse radish, smoked paprika, this and that. If it ain't hot enough I cheat and mix trader joes habanero sauce in to taste.

Pretty much just wing it and always end up with something good. More people need to wing it!

I am constantly tying new sauces with a group of friends and family, thus the reason for a devoted cabinet.

I have to say my favorites are as follows..

SWEET : Butch's Spicy Sweet (good on everything but beef)
SAVORY: Texas - Texas Bad to the Bone / Head Country (both are good on everything)
BEEF: Rudy's Bar-B-Q Sauce / Texas - Texas Shiner Bock
VINEGAR: Franklin's Vinegar Sauce
CHICKEN: Chiavetta's BBQ Marinade and Salamida Cornell Chicken Sauce
HOT: Butch's Super Pyro (so hot most can't tolerate it) so I also keep Butch's Pyro on hand for those who just like hot.

Blue's Hog I mix for my liking, Stubs is a good sauce for large crowds and pleases a multitude of tastes. And for those who like excessively sweet sauce, I have Sweet Baby Ray's (I buy a variety of these on sale for 1.00 a bottle)
