      Yeah I know! Steve B …..actually these were pretty decent sized wings, and I had a lot of those scalloped potatoes left over from the other night.

    Thanks for the side by side. I have always enjoyed the Stubbs. I also admit that I'm perfectly happy with a shot of Jim Beam added to KC Masterpiece so my opinion isn’t worth much!

      Cattleman’s! I forgot all about that. I used to use it all the time, back in the day.

      STEbbq challenged me to compare Meathead’s KC BBQ Sauce with Max Good ’s Black Swan. Oh hell yeah, I’ll do it! I just ordered me some Beso del Fuego, it’ll be here Wednesday. This Sunday I’ll cook something and do a side by side comparison. I’m thinking maybe some Vortex ribs or maybe hang a chicken in the Bronco, not sure yet. Stay tuned folks! I’m either gonna get banned for life or get a free lifetime membership to The Pit!

        See that PJ? Max liked my post so your banning odds just jumped (I kid).

        I am not sure if Max Good considers his original sauce closer to KC style so maybe a better apples to apples versus MH’s KC sauce. But hey…third round of competition here. How many wings can PJ eat?!?

        But Beso Del Fuego is definitely my favorite of the three BS sauces so it should be an epic match! 🔥🔥🔥👍👍👍

      I'm trying to settle down to just three sauces for "everyday" use. For Texas-style, I love Stubbs. I really enjoy that peppery bite, plus it is readily available and the least expensive of the others. For spicy, hands down, without question, it is Beso del Fuego.

      I'm still trying to find a good KC-style sauce. I need to try Meathead's.

        You should try it Michael, I’d bet you’ll like it a lot.

      I seem to collect bottles of bbq sauce. I just looked and I currently have 14 in the pantry and three open in the fridge. Do I have a problem? 😵‍💫🤣🙄

        Yes. I realized I had a problem when I had to start tossing out expired bottles of BBQ sauce that had never been opened. I quite making large purchases of sauce online at that point, and either mix up a recipe of what I find here, or buy a SMALL bottle at the store of something I like. I can't keep 3 gallon jugs of Blues Hog sauce open in the extra fridge in the garage going forward....

        Developed the same issue with rubs, and have whittled it down to a small basket on a shelf in the pantry, as the rubs would go bad and clump up before I could use them... I am mostly back to just mixing up the ones I like from here. Too many of the commercial rubs - especially the Hardcore Carnivore ones - were like eating pure salt.

        Mix the three open ones together… now you got a new sauce!

      My favorite bbq sauce tends to be the one in front of me.

      I don’t like ranking them. There are ones I like, and others that I’m indifferent to or just don’t like. When I get too many open at once, I mix them all together… and that’s usually pretty good, too.

      Here are sauces I like. I haven’t had Stubb’s in years, so I can’t rank it.

      Dinosaur Sensuous Slathering
      Meathead’s KC
      Black Swan Original, Beso, and Cognac
      Meat Mitch Whomp! and Naked Whomp!

      I don’t care for Arthur Bryant’s Original. I’ve read that the Sweet Heat is much better.

      I’ve been making the AR KC sauce recipe for years now. I prefer it to bottled sauces for a lot of reasons. Meathead’s commercial sauce is pretty close, with the addition of the liquid smoke. I don’t mind liquid smoke.

        Well now my ears have perked up. LOL
        Nine times out of ten, I’ll make my own sauce. When time is not on my side, or I’m racing off to someone’s house, my go-to is Stubb’s. Seems better than most of the grocery store sauces… But now I’m thinking I might need to try the others. Max’s spicy one might be just the ticket for most of my friends & I…with MH’s being a good all purpose sauce. Hmmm…
