Jake's BBQ Sauce - Make Your Fourth Delicious! Review and Giveaway

Fourth of July weekend is almost here, and I know for a lot of people that means time spent around the grill!  I know we’ll be having some people over on Sunday to enjoy the afternoon and grill some delicious food.  This past weekend we decided to have a test run on the grilling and try out some new sauce we got from Jake’s.  It was delicious! 

We used the Jake’s Medium Hot BBQ Sauce on chicken and shrimp.  It has a nice smoky flavor with heat from pureed jalapeno, habanero, and ginger.  Although it definitely has heat, it’s not so much that you’re gasping for air or can’t taste anything but the heat.  I’ve been adding it to black bean burgers instead of ketchup, and I also made bar-b-q tofu po-boys that were absolutely delicious!   We were sent the mild sauce as well, but we haven’t tried it yet since we’ve been enjoying the other so much.  I’m sure we’ll bring the mild out when we have a bunch of children over this weekend! 

I love that Jake’s BBQ Sauce uses all natural ingredients.  No high fructose corn syrup or things I can’t pronounce here!  It’s like something you’d make at home, but you don’t have to spend time coming up with the perfect recipe (believe me, they have that down!), or actually making the sauce.  I do want to point out, however, that it is NOT a vegetarian sauce.  If you want them to make a vegetarian sauce go to their Facebook page and let them know!  Their sauces have some Worcestershire sauce in them. 

We also got to try the California Chipolte Magic Dry Rub.  It was delicious too!  We tried it on the shrimp, and I also put it in my pasta salad marinade a few days later.  Both turned out great.  It has a wonderful smoky/sweet flavor that both of us really enjoyed.  Be sure to check out the FAQ page for tons of great tips on BBQ’ing!
