    JG, I couldn't find the original post, but you sang the praises of Sweet Baby Ray's BBQsauce. I use it as a base, add some of this, some of that and it's a wonderful meal.

    The Bride came home with Sweet Baby Ray's Rasberry Chipolte.

    A family pack of wings low and slow, moistening it occasionally with Coors Light for steam (what else can you do with Light?)

    Throwing this out in case you haven't heard of the rasberry chipolte; if it's not available in your area lemme know.

    Love Sweet Baby Ray's. My lunch today was two slices of turkey Spam, two slices bread, slice of cheese, brief trip through the microwave, SBR on the meat. Ummmm.

    Turkey Spam?

    I'd rather have a colonoscopy....

    Ah, come on, you sound like my wife. It was in our hurricane supplies, I like it, so there.

    I get snow, no hurricanes. My rescue pack contains a vice grip, duct tape, beer and a toothbrush.

    Man, it's so wild to hear how many people like the stuff. I've used it for years. Never knew it was anybody else's fave until recently.

    Oh good; another food thread.

    I usually make my own BBQ sauce from scratch, Hot sauce OTOH, I get from a guy I meet in the lower level of a parking deck, after dark. He stands in the shadows and throws the bottles to me.I slide the money to him in a shoebox. They come with names like "Brain Damage", and "Temporary Insanity". Eight drops in a crock pot will set off the smoke detector.

    Want some chili?

    Ugh. I destroyed a pot of chili by putting a couple drops of that "Dave's Insanity" E36 M3 in there, and yes, I said a POT of chili.

    For wings, I mix (cheap-ass) Kroger brand medium wing sauce with Valentina extra hot, butter, and garlic. Num.

    Yes. That's the stuff..

    Not for women or children. It takes large kahonas to even be in the same room with it.

    I used to love Sweet Baby Ray's until I tried some local stuff called Moe's. Moe is the berkleying MAN when it comes to BBQ sauce! I'll gladly buy and ship at cost if anybody wants to try it, but picture a ~400Lb jolly African-American raised in Nawleens and kept deprived of decent BBQ up here in our arctic tundra. The man can cook let me tell you!

    That stuff rocks.

    Raspberry Chipotle + yellow mustard + honey + some sweet habanero pepper sauce we got in Belize + black pepper + garlic powder =

    An awesome rib (or any other damn meat, for that matter) sauce.

    The SBR is the shizzle. Not sure what you guys pay for it, but I get it for $1.77 a bottle at our local SuperTarget. I used to make my own sauce, but this stuff made it obsolete.

    Well, I guess you found one use for Coors beer. Did you use it when the mountains were blue? That's how you know it's cold.

    Oh yeah. That stuff is so delicious... I've shown it to a couple people who now swear by it also. Let me tell you how I stumbled upon it.

    I had roaches in FL, and poisons weren't working. So I went through the whole wall of poisons looking at the active ingredients, and they were all basically the same. Well, I found one that had something else, and tried it. It was a cheaply labelled white spray can with black writing and maybe a little red called TAT, I believe. Well, it worked great. I don't know what it did but I sprayed it once and they just disappeared for a long time.

    Anyway, I was looking at barbeque sauces... and the last one I had wasn't that good. I remember Friendly's when I was a kid has a Bullseye BBQ burger that used Bullseye sauce and was delicious... but I bought it and could hardly finish the bottle.

    So, I looked for the cheapest looking labelled BBQ sauce and came across Sweet Baby Ray's. For $1 or 2, I couldn't go wrong. I never regret that choice, it's bloody delicious on anything.

    My only problem is that it is so good, I'm afraid to try any of the different flavors they offer just because I'll regret each bite I take that I didn't get the classic if I don't like it as much.

    haha talking about roaches... my father-in-law made his own bug spray... didn't have luck with the commercial stuff so using a mix of different very hot peppers made into a paste. he made a small trench along the exterior wall of the house and poured it on in... didn't have any ants or other crawly bug problems for years...

    and yes sweet baby rays is THE sauce :)

    So we need testimonials. I totally want to be in a SBR commercial. I'll go first:

    "When I picked the plate up off the table, all it had left were some scraps of pork fat, gristle, bone, a fork, a shoe, an old SAG award, an entire chess set carved from emeralds, and a bottle of Sweet Baby Ray's. When I got the the kitchen, all I had was a fork, and part of an empty bottle."

    I got introduced to SBR when I worked as a delivery driver at a pizza joint. It's what we used for the BBQ pizzas and subs. I fell in love.
