Stubb's BBQ Special

[ddog27]

It looks like Stubbs has some packages of BBQ sauces and rubs that you can buy and the money goes to the charity “Chefs Cook for Katrina”. The packages start at $15.00 and go up to $100.00. Might be a time to try some of the stuff from Stubbs, plus the money goes to a good cause.

Real good sauces for a real good cause.

I've seen Stubbs sauces in the store but never bought 'em. What are they like? Comparative to any KC styles I might have had?

 

[ggeilman]

Stubbs is good, but I prefer Charlie Robinson's. Ordered a case of sauce the other day.

It is good, middle of the road sauce IMHO. Not as good as a good KC one. Tried the hot, not hot at all, not hot in the least way, not hot in my farthest imagination. :x Are you getting the point? I want things that say hot, to be hot. :twisted: Not sissy hot.

So what your saying is, you like it hot?

Some like it hot and some sweat when the heat is on.

 

[Bill-Chicago]

Do you like it thick too, Dog?

If ya don't sweat, it's not hot enough. :wink: And yes, hot and sweet is the best combination. 8)

Depends on your taste I guess. IMHO if it is so hot that you can't taste the meat what are you covering up?

I knew Stubbs when he had his little BBQ joint in East Lubbock before he became famous and moved to Austin - where he lived until he died a few years ago.
I was going to Texas Tech and working part time at a warehouse a few blocks away. We would go there for lunch.

Then when I quit Tech and started farming and raising cattle, we used to drive down to the Hub city and go eat at Stubbs and stay and watch Stevie Ray Vaughn play the blues. Stubbs sang with the band one night. He had a damn good voice.

The sauce is from his original reciepe.

Good to see you on Quinn.

Didnt know Texas Instruments raised cattle

True, there is such a thing as too hot. That is not good either. What I am trying to say is that if you are marketing a product as hot, then it should be hot by reasonable standards. I did not find his sauce to be hot at all. It did however have a good taste, so I added the heat and it was much better. Those of us who like truely hot food are used to having to "kick it up a notch."

I'm with BigDog all the way on this one. Just tell the truth. If it's hot, say it's hot. If it's not, say it's not. Then we can make an informed decision. I like it hot, and am dissapointed(p$$$ed off) when I spend money and the product is not as advertised. This goes for restaurant food too. They are sometimes the worst offenders.

I agree but Stubbs Hot is not hot IMHO

 

[ggeilman]

Me, I don't like it hot, prefer moderately spicy. Although I have never tried his "hot" so I have no frame of reference. All I know is I don't care for much of the sauces down here in San Antonio and have become burnt out on Stubbs. It is nice for a change of pace, but not all the time for me.

I agree with my esteemed Brother Dog. I didn't find the sauce to be "hot" but I did think it had good "flavor". Many times I have to get the "hot" stuff to get good "flavor". I also add heat to things if I want more of a "bite" or "kick" to it.
