I have a small specialty meat shop and I'm thinking about offering barbecue chicken and ribs during the summer months.  I would prepare my own barbecue sauce, but I don't have a stove in the shop and to get the place set up for food prep would be problematic (additional regulations, etc.).  I did some previous searching within this group for recommendations on bottled sauces and I found two brands that offer bulk quantities:  http://www.bonesuckin.com/ and http://www.jackstackbbq.com/ If there are any other brands that you would recommend just let me know.  Many thanks. Sam

Sam Sam, have a run up to Sams Club in Scranton.  Larger bottles, and you can buy as many as you like- in quantity.  Find one you like there, first, of course. Pierre

You don't need to cook BBQ sauces. I suspect all the food distributors like Sysco and Ben Keith have bulk sauces as well.  I can get pretty good BBQ sauce in 2 gallon jugs at the grocery store for $4 ( Little Pigs brand - not to be confused with the dozen or so BBQ restaurants with similar name, I think).  Not that I[ve never bought any of this, but a friend of mine has a bottle of it (for the last 2 years). -sw

(I don't use sauce usually, and store bought is good enough for guests)

snip . You don't need to cook BBQ sauces. I suspect all the food distributors like Sysco and Ben Keith have bulk sauces as well.  I can get pretty good BBQ sauce in 2 gallon jugs at the grocery store for $4 ( Little Pigs brand - not to be confused with the dozen or so BBQ restaurants with similar name, I think).  Not that I[ve never bought any of this, but a friend of mine has a bottle of it (for the last 2 years). That  Little Pigs BBQ sauce isn't bad, if you have to have sauce. I was surprised.  Even after a year in the pantry unrefrigerated (like I said - not my bottle or else it would be in the fridge), it still tastes OK.  I could use some heat, as you note. I probably exaggerated on the size of the bottle.  It's probably a gallon rather then two. -sw
