If 80% of the teams use it, then I think it is the best sauce for competition RIGHT NOW. That can change of course, but with so many teams using it. Its hard to say that it is not the best sauce to use as a base right now.

That doesn't mean that you HAVE to use it to win, but its not going to hurt your chances.

Its also like a smoker. If 80% of the teams used the exact same smoker, then that would be the best smoker for comps, but that doesn't mean you would have to use it to win.

Just depends on your style of cooking as usual.

Why Blues Hog? Becuase it works.

Hmmmmm...are top teams winning because they are using Blues hog? Or is Blues Hog winning because it is being used by top teams? Kinda like the cook or the cooker question.

The whole thing seems to be one of those chicken or the egg debates.

This could probably be an endless debate. It is good sauce, but I'll bet that the winning teams are cutting it with something and not using it straight. I use a doctored version and it has served it's purpose well.

I bet that the vast majority of teams are doctoring the sauce in one way or another.
