Tradition, family, and hobbies are just a few attributes that connect ourselves to our Southern roots. Whether it’s becoming grilling pitmasters, replicating Southern flavors, or having a Southern upbringing, these qualities overall shape the way in which we create.
We say this to say that these qualities are also the way in which BBQ sauces are created and formed for our liking. Therefore, we have created a list of 10 Black-Owned BBQ sauces with Southern roots that have an understanding, flavor pallet, and passion for Southern cuisine.
- Honey Bear’s Barbeque
Regular or spicy, Honeys Bear’s BBQ sauce is one sauce you should try on your summer meat dishes this month. Based in Phoenix, Arizona, Honey Bear’s is capturing the hearts of sauce lovers with their Southern Tennessee-style BBQ flavors. If this sauce doesn’t have enough heat or spice, try adding their seasoning salt to your marinated meats as well.
Ken Davis BBQ Sauce
Influenced by the jazz bassist and entrepreneur from Nebraska named Ken Davis, this BBQ sauce once never tasted the same but always tasted delicious. With help from his grandmother and his love for flavor, now, the Ken Davis BBQ sauce is made consistently with love and hearty flavors that is sure to taste good on chicken, burgers, hot dogs or brats.
Riley’s Ribz
Ever had a dish that wasn’t saying anything to you or not giving you the flavors you wished for? Well, Riley’s Ribz says their sauce, seasonings and flavors will “Make Your Food Say Some’M.” Instead of having bland ribs or unflavorful chicken, Riley’s Ribz provides their smokin sweet heat and sweet and smokey gluten free sauce just for you to use to enhance those cookout flavors.
Argia B’s Mumbo Sauce
Argia B’s Mumbo Sauce, is packed with Southern homestyle flavor and is premium quality created in the heart of Chicago. The Mumbo Sauce has a mixture of his Southern Mississippi roots and can be brought in their original, hickory smoke, or tangy hot flavors
Flavour De La Baye
Founded by Ms. Susan Noel, Flavour De La Baye has been in the food service industry for over forty years. Rooted in authentic Caribbean flavors, Flavour De La Baye offers great dishes and even greater sauces. Specifically, their Chipotle Tamarind BBQ sauce is one of many sauces we are featuring today.
The Got Damn Sauce
Their signature BBQ sauce, which is available in 12 oz and 16 oz bottles has a flavor profile that is sweet and tangy with a slight kick on the back end. These flavors pair together seamlessly and is a custom flavor pallet for The Got Damn Sauce brand.
Pit Master LT’s
Created by Mr. “LT” who is a proud U.S. Army veteran and Kansa City barbecue pitmaster, the Classic Kansas City Style BBQ sauce or Spicy Kansas City Style BBQ sauce is what you can find, order, and enjoy from Pit Master LT’s. Try both of these sauces in a combination pack or individually; whichever fits your taste buds.
Zeke Sauce
Zeke Sauce was crafted after years of honing the family’s BBQ methods. Zeke, the Zeke Sauce flavor connoisseur, added his own flavor profile to the family recipe and now we have the opportunity to partake in the Zeke Sauce. Best described as sweet with a little heat, Zeke Sauce is the perfect sauce when you want to add something special to your food!
G Hughes Sugar Free
This family of signature sauces includes Original, Carolina Gold, Mesquite Flavored, Maple Brown Flavored, Hickory Flavored, Honey Flavored, Sweet & Spicy, and Carolina Style Sweet Heat and is the just the collection that you need to choose from for your next BBQ setting. We all know that everyone likes a different taste on their saucey dishes, so G Hughes created enough for everyone in the family to be happy with the next grill out or indoor activity.
These 10 BBQ sauces are just what we need for these summer festivities and we hope that you take each of these into consideration when planning your next family event or to have in your home when cooking.
