BBQ sauce is a grill's best friend. Its tangy, sweet-smokiness instantly ups the ante on grilled meat, ribs, and chicken, commanding center of the plate attention with the flick of a basting brush. Our Kansas City Style BBQ Sauce was a longtime resident on our shelves that upheld this meaty tradition with aplomb, but over the years, its ingredient deck started to fall out of line with current trends. Retiring this old standby allowed us to make room for a new sauce that we think will be an instant classic: Trader Joe's Organic Kansas City Style BBQ Sauce. Our Organic Kansas City Style BBQ Sauce went through extensive tasting panel review prior to its approval-after all, the old sauce was a customer favorite for a reason! (and eating BBQ week after week wasn't bad, either). Our goal was to emulate the irresistible tanginess of the previous sauce, while at the same time reducing the sugar and balancing the smoke. We think we accomplished it, with a base of tomato puree, brown sugar and molasses for tang and sweetness, amped up with natural hickory smoke flavor. Onion powder and garlic powder add savory notes, rounded out by paprika and chipotle powder for a smoky finish. Try it in our Meatless Meatball BBQ Subs Recipe!
