Matouk's West Indian Sauce |
1. As was the case in June, Wells Hog Heaven Barbecue Sauce is once again the best-selling sauce at the Carolina Sauces online store. A favorite of eastern North Carolina BBQ purists, Wells is made from a deceptively simple list of ingredients (mainly vinegar, pepper and other spices), but when splashed on pulled pork it perfectly complements and enhances the rich flavor and supplies that trademark Carolina tang.
2. Up from a fifth place finish the previous month, Matouk's West Indian Hot Sauce took the second spot in July. Made in Trinidad & Tobago from local ingredients including sweet papaya, fiery scotch bonnet peppers and savory spices in a thick and tangy mustard base, this is the "mildest" of the Matouk's Hot Sauces but still delivers plenty of tropical heat along with a mellow fruit flavor that pairs nicely with chicken, fish and seafood.
3. Also moving up three slots is the hotter, more savory Matouk's Hot Calypso Sauce, a feisty, fiery and less sweet sibling to Matouk's West Indian. While it also works well with poultry and seafood, its bigger, bolder flavor stands up to more robust foods like meats, stews, rice and beans, and the like.
Pukka Hot Sauce |
5. Busha Browne's Pukka Sauce is also from Jamaica, but it is not a jerk sauce. Instead, this sassy pepper sauce is made in the colonial tradition and relies almost exclusively on scotch bonnet peppers in a vinegar base for a clean, straightforward flavor that will spice up virtually any dish. This classic table sauce is one of our all-time best-selling hot sauces and is reappearing on the monthly top-seller list after a brief absence.
6. Also returning to the list is Susie's Original Hot Sauce, a traditional Caribbean mustard-pepper sauce with a fanatical following and which can sometimes be very hard to get. Enjoy it on anything that could use a punch of savory, peppery heat--and it's especially good with red beans and rice, seafood stews, and vegetarian dishes.
7. Walkerswood Spicy Jerk Marinade is made from the same basic ingredients as the jerk seasoning, but in ready-to-use marinade form. Because it's a liquid rather than a paste or rub, it's also less intense, making it great for marinating chicken breast, seafood and vegetables as well as heartier meats or dark poultry.
Jalapeno Popper Grill Rack |
9. Scorned Woman Hot Sauce is a classic, all-purpose pepper-vinegar hot sauce that's been around seemingly forever, no doubt because it's so popular with folks who want a hotter, multi-layered heat that won't change the flavor of food. Habaneros, jalapenos and black pepper provide three different heat experiences in one tangy vinegar sauce that works with all sorts of foods plus in bloody marys and any recipe calling for hot sauce.
10. GrillGrates are a revolutionary, award-winning innovation in BBQ grilling, with a special raised-rail design that grills food more evenly, without flare-ups and with better flavor.
