Exploring The "Layers" Of Barbeque Sauce For Competition-Style Meats.

Tips For Bringing Out The Best In Your BBQ Sauce

When it comes to competition BBQ, you will actually find yourself using a number of different sauces that can be defined as a “barbeque sauce” --- though these different sauces aren’t actually used for exactly the same purposes.

There are four additives you will need to get the best flavor from your BBQ sauce. These include:

  • Brine
  • Marinades and injections
  • Rubs
  • Finishing sauces

Although each of these may not technically be referred to as a barbeque sauce, each is important in the barbeque process and cannot be overlooked.

The brine is applied before you actually cook the meat or add the barbeque sauce to your meat. It serves to help the meat retain its moisture as you cook.

Marinades and injections are also applied before cooking, but they serve to add flavor to the meat. Care should be taken when selecting what will be included in your marinades and injections to ensure they compliment your BBQ sauce well.

A rub can be thought of as the first layer of your barbeque sauce because it helps add additional flavor and forms the crust of the barbeque on your meat. The finishing sauce is what many amateur backyard chefs call a BBQ sauce. This barbeque sauce gets added to the meat as it cooks, though not all meats require an actual finishing sauce.
