I've tried many BBQ sause recipes and this one is by far the best, however I added shaved orange peelings to it and a couple of orange slices and it's fantastic!

Sorry, I was hoping this would really be a hit. It was too vinegary (even though eastern NC style sauce IS vinegary). It lacked something, I wouldn't make this again.

I followed recipe to the exact amounts and the vinegar was a bit over powering. I would def. make again, I would just cut back on the vinegar.

A little undecided on this one. I think the flavor was nice, but our chicken that we cooked on the grill came out very very dry. I'm giving this recipe three stars because we are all novices at grilling here, so it could have been how we cooked it. Also, barbecue (low & slow) is traditionally different than grilling (fast and hight) so that could have made a difference. I'm going to try this again in the slow cooker and see if that makes a difference

Fantastic recipe. I'm a displaced North Carolinian and this is as close to home as it gets. Bravo!

With BBQ sauce, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, there is no one right sauce. So, I give this one 5-stars, but have my comments. Note that my favorite sauces are vinegar or vinegar/ketchup based. -vinegar overpowers, I would reduce vinegar and especially reduce the white vinegar -spices do not "dissolve," too much sediment. Cooking it would probably help or straining after sitting a few days - need to shake it frequently -needs a touch more sweetness - more sugar, molasses or honey -be careful with what hot sauce you use, they don't all taste he same. I used Texas Pete and it tainted the flavor of the sauce in a negative way - I'll skip the hot sauce next time and use more cayenne or red pepper flakes
