The Sauce

Barbeque sauces vary from region to region, from pitmaster to pitmaster, from user to user, each with a different opinion on which is best and whether the sauce should complement the meat or complete it. But whether BBQ competitor or restaurateur, each master has a finishing sauce of his or her own.

We at Tin Hut BBQ believe that , as with our Steaks, the sauce should be a compliment to the meat and the meat should be properly seasoned with the basic rubs during the smoking process.  Of course, when creating the BBQ sauce we ensure that the appropriate seasonings are added so that it complements the meat, enhancing – never hiding the flavor of the meat.
