As was said before , I developed a sauce that would complement an not over power. I do believe that at contest, you are going to get the volunteer local judge that " It's just not BBQ w/o Sauce" I always sauce our entries---But---instead of plastering the meat with sauce, I will lightly and I mean lightly sauce the meat. So light that you can see the smoke ring through the sauce. It seems to work for me.
