Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ Sauce

[Philtor]

I really like it! Tiny little bit acidic but lovely flavour on meat and has a bit of a kick to it

Here’s the ingredients..

This is on offer in Tesco at the moment as well. They had Bull's Eye too.

Pound stretcher were selling of the New York and Original Bulls Eye sauce for 50p. I now have 25 bottles.

Just google'd sweet baby rays to see prices in the UK at the moment and noticed the first ingredient on the ingredients list is high fructose corn syrup

And they claim it's a family recipe, does anyone use HFCS in the home??

Really popular in America. Available in most grocery stores.

Oh sweet lord. Never been a massive fan of BBQ sauce. Usually always prefer something else. However I read this thread a while ago and happened upon some Sweet Baby Ray's in Tescos, I thought why not? So bought a bottle. And wowee this stuff is great. Really nice tang to it. Thanks for recommending it

Found some in Lidl, gunna give it a try. How is best to cook with it? Marinade some chicken for a few hours slap it on the grill?

I bought 2 bottles of sweet baby Ray in Lidl last week. It's delicious!!

i got 7 bottles for 90p each, with a short date, 3 months left on it..... Im pretty sure i can manage those 3 months, its going to be delicious.
The guy at the checkout thought i was weird. 7 bottles of sauce and 1 packet of spare ribs



oh i totally read the date wrong ive got 1 week till expiry date, so 1 month or so to eat all this
i foresee a lot of marinating.

havent tried that one. but they wont go off any time soon

Don’t worry about the date. It’ll keep for ages.

I mean.. we don’t even keep our mayo in the fridge after opening (even though it advises to)

same here with ketchup, hp sauce etc. only thing in fridge is salad cream and mayo - missus has them. everything else, stays in the cupboard.

Yep. Fridge cold sauces ruin the flavour imho.

Baby Ray - a sauce to rule them all ?

Have run out of lifes supply of HP sauce , we usually use polyvalent HP with dishes like Mac'n'Cheese / corned-beef hash / kedgeree ...
will Baby Ray meet those needs ?, if not what ....

 

[Burned_Alive]

Co-op Memphis for me.

 

[jpaul]

so - can it replace HP, or Ketchup ?

It depends if you're happy with the taste of BBQ rather than HP or tomato ketchup.

- guess not if its strong BBQ flavour / even designated for marrinades.

...some brown sauce research - the Irish seem to have a highly regarded brown sauce 'Chefs' but difficult to get in the UK,
no anchovies, which I learned is in HP (knew it was in Worcestershire)
