Sweet Baby Rays Shredded Pork

fweck · 02-21-2013, 08:32 AM

So my wife comes home from the store this weekend and says "Look what I got." She had two tubs of Sweet Baby Rays Shredded Pork. Now having tried Lloyds and others, I didn't have the heart to tell her that it will probably be nasty.

Well we had it last night and I was pleasantly surprised. Not mushy, big chunks of meat with visible bark. The only complaint I would have was there was a little bit too much sauce, but it wasn't swimming in it like the others. I wouldn't mind if she bought it again.

Hummmmm. Might try it if I see it. Perhaps strain some of the sauce out and mix in a little cider vinegar too.

Hmm...interesting, never heard of it.
It's a very rare day when I put sauce on anything, but when I do, it's usually Sweet Baby Rays.

At Sams Club, they have Jack Daniels pulled pork. Awesome. That is all.

I've used Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ sauce, it's great with Butt! Never have seen it pre-made though! lol

Actually, I don't think I've ever even had Sweet Baby Rays sauce. Then again, I use sauce as a condiment for fries mostly, or on grilled chicken, or as an ingredient for other dishes like beans and such...

bragsly · 02-21-2013, 09:07 AM

It's my sauce of choice so I'll give it a try is I see it>

deguerre · 02-21-2013, 09:11 AM

Speaking of the shredded pork and chicken, I see they have ribs too. Anyone tried those?

Bludawg · 02-21-2013, 09:20 AM

I look at this stuff like the Mc rib: some people will eat anything if it has the word BBQ attached to it or the name of a popular Sauce. IMO I woudln't feed it to my dogs for fear of getting bit, Goes to show most dogs are smarter than people.

On a less-proud day, i've eaten the Sweet Baby Ray's sliced brisket.

It pales in comparison to a local bbq joint...
Which pales in comparison to my brisket...

But as a cheap impulse buy on a tuesday night for a quick snack, it wasn't horrible. Closer to real bbq than mc-rib by a mile.

The day I can go to the grocery store, sit there all day with my feet up, drinking a 12 pack, listening to tunes as loud as I want and smoking a cigar is the day I will buy pulled pork in a tube or farked over sauced ribs.......

SBR is GREAT on fries

Being from the west, sauce is on pretty much all bbq, and i prefer sauce on mine (light, they wont be swimming in it) and my all time favorite sauce right now is SBR brown sugar and hickory.
