Yep, Heinz ACV has an acidity level of 5%. So, if you can find a vinegar in the UK with 5% acidity, you should be OK with the recipe as is unless you just don't like tangy BBQ sauces.
In VA, we like it tangy, tangy, tangy. In central Texas, not so much, apparently. In fact, I was surprised at how little tang there was in most of the BBQ sauces I tasted in central Texas.

Which of these two sauces is best in your opinion? Being from Virginia, I want to represent. Which one is more authentic VA BBQ?

Both are good. Shack is spicy and tangy. Griffin is sweet and tangy. Both are authentic. Shack being an old school 19th century style, Griffin being a 20th century style sauce.

So Griffin Sauce is from the future?

It's time America was re-introduced to its first regional barbecue tradition: Virginia barbecue. It's the style of barbecue that George Washington ate. I hope that all of you who enjoy the Shack sauce and Griffin sauce will give credit where credit is due: Old time Virginia barbecue cooks that no one bothered to ever write about. Some of them were mentioned in history like Shack and Griffin, but so many others have been forgotten.
My work is meant to bring attention to the fine barbecue cooked by Virginia's barbecue cooks throughout the centuries. It's time for a Virginia barbecue revival! Here are some clips of some old newspaper ads I have dug up.

Thanks - I have made sauces before without feeling the acidity.
When I saw this recipe I realised I had run out of Cider Vinegar & my local store only had the one brand. Though it is 5% acidity I guess its just not good for sauces. Otherwise, the flavours are all good in the sauce - so deff going to make another batch when I get a different vinegar. |

I'd love to see the 1840 Ga add. The town that's mentioned is where I was raised in and I still live here in Madison Ga. Very cool.

I made this for a graduation party last weekend and it was a total hit. Not sure a lot of folks like vinegar in my area so their enthusiastic approval of this sauce was a surprise. I did some pulled pork and decided to try this instead of my usual Lexington sauce that I normally conjure up for pulled pork and it was a wise decision!!
