Our Signature Sauces

While we take pride in our signature sauces like Twang (a Carolina-style vinegar sauce), Harmony (our Kansas City-style sauce), and Blues on Fire (a new creation with a medium-heat kick from serrano peppers and a tart treble from blueberries), it's our meat that truly shines. Unlike some barbecue places where the sauce makes the meat, our meats stand on their own, thanks to our meticulous smoking process.
