Mustard in Carolina BBQ

Most people think BBQ sauce is thick, red, and made with tomatoes. But in South Carolina, they do things differently. They love their BBQ sauce made with mustard instead. This yellow, tangy sauce has been popular in the area for a long time. Over the years, this mustard sauce became a big part of Carolina BBQ culture. Now, it’s a favorite all across the South. My sauce brings a version of this tasty tradition to your backyard. It gives you that real Carolina flavor, no matter where you live. So when you use my sauce, you’re getting a taste of true Southern BBQ history right on your plate.

Whether you’re smoking a pork shoulder for pulled pork, grilling up some chicken wings, or looking for the perfect sauce for your next sandwich, this sauce is the ideal complement. The mustard base, combined with the perfect balance of sweetness and tang, creates a flavor profile that enhances the natural flavors of your meats without overwhelming them.

How to Use Zesty Gold BBQ Sauce

Using my Zesty Gold BBQ Sauce is simple, and can be done in so many ways. You can use it as a binder when applying rubs to your meats before grilling or smoking. Use it as a basting sauce during the last few minutes of grilling or smoking, as a dipping sauce on the side, or even as a marinade for meats before cooking. You can even replace your standard mustard in any dish to give it some extra zing.

It’s Not Just for Meat

While Zesty Gold BBQ Sauce is fantastic on pork and chicken, don’t let that limit your options. This sauce can do so much more. Mix it into your potato salad for a zesty twist, or use it as a dipping sauce for fries or onion rings, and even try it as a unique sauce for pizzas. The tangy mustard flavor adds a depth of flavor to any dish, making it a true all-purpose sauce. Check out some of my favorite non-traditional uses for this flavorful sauce:

Pairing Suggestions

While this Zesty Gold BBQ Sauce is delicious on its own, it also pairs incredibly well with several of my signature rubs. For an unexpected but amazing flavor combination, try using my Rib Rub as a base seasoning on your pork or chicken, then finish with a coating of sauce. The contrast between the sweet, smoky rub and the tangy, mustard sauce creates a depth of flavor that’s tough to beat.
