Bourbon Q® Brand “Classic” Kentucky Bourbon Barbecue Sauce - Gallon

Since 1990 — A Championship Standard in Kentucky Barbecue

For over three decades, Bourbon Q® Brand “Classic” Kentucky Bourbon Barbecue Sauce has defined what authentic Kentucky barbecue should taste like: bold, balanced, and built on tradition. First crafted in 1990, this flagship recipe quickly earned its place in barbecue history — warming the hearts of rib connoisseurs across the globe and claiming multiple world championship rib titles along with a host of regional and local awards.

This is the sauce that started it all. The one pitmasters trust when trophies are on the line.

A Heritage Rooted in Kentucky Craft

Inspired by the depth and character of Kentucky bourbon culture, Bourbon Q® Classic captures the same principles found in fine distilling: patience, balance, and respect for time-honored methods. Its robust flavor profile is built upon a smoky Worcestershire and vinegar base — a nod to traditional Southern pit barbecue — delivering heartiness without heaviness.

Every note is intentional:

  • Smoky Worcestershire richness for deep umami complexity

  • Bright vinegar tang that cuts cleanly through rich meats

  • Balanced sweetness to enhance caramelization

  • Layered spice undertones that round out the finish

The result is a sauce that complements rather than overwhelms — allowing the natural character of the meat and smoke to shine.

A True Competition-Ready Sauce

Bourbon Q® Classic isn’t just popular — it’s proven. With multiple world championship rib victories to its name, this sauce has earned respect from seasoned pitmasters and judging panels alike. It performs flawlessly under heat, caramelizing into a glossy, flavorful glaze that clings beautifully to ribs, pork shoulder, brisket, and chicken.

As a basting sauce, it builds rich layers of flavor throughout the cook.

As a finishing glaze, it provides a polished, championship-worthy sheen.

As a dipping sauce, it delivers balanced tang and smoke in every bite.

For Novices and Old-School Masters Alike

One of the hallmarks of Bourbon Q® Classic is its versatility. It opens the door to barbecue for beginners — forgiving, balanced, and easy to work with — while earning the loyalty of “Old School” pitmasters who demand authenticity and depth.
