Putting it in my mouth

[arewethereyet]

Do you have Sweet Baby Ray's sauces up there?  They are pretty good for BBQ.  We switched from KC Masterpiece to Sweet Baby Ray's a few years ago.

I like Sweet Baby Ray's stuff, but I'm trying to minimize cost, and Sweet Baby Ray's is more expensive than other, potentially suitable options.

Cub has Sweet Baby Ray's on sale for $1.50 a bottle right now, so I'm trying their Original, Chipotle Honey, and Hickory Brown Sugar.  The latter is good, but I can probable find generics with a comparable taste.  I'm spending a bunch up front to develop sustainable eating habits, budgetwise.  As long as I'm earning money donating plasma, I can afford to eat what I like.  When I decide to stop donating, I'll have to live on a slimmer budget.

I like Famous Dave sauces, too, but like Sweet Baby Ray, they're a little more expensive.

(Oh, I've also got Sweet Baby Ray's Sweet Golden Mustard, but that's more due to there being fewer options for mustard-based barbecue sauces.)

About once a year I order some bottles of mustard based BBQ sauce from a chain of restaurants in SC.  I split them with my daughter.  I have yet to find one that comes close to it.  The problem is that the chain that sells it is widely known for being as racist as hell.   If I had thought of it, I would have picked some up while in SC last month.  Of course I would have had to redneck up and borrow someone else's car to go there.
