"Depending on where in the Carolinas you hail from, some swear by the authenticity of this sauce! It's different from your typical tomato based bbq sauce and it's quite spicy! We like it on pork!"

  1. Fabulous. My boyfriend is from South Carolina, and has been searching for a recipe for a mustard-based bbq sauce since he moved here. He said this was fantastic. Thanks!
     
  2. Excellent flavor! The long simmering mellows out the mustard flavor so that it is not too sharp. I serve this on pulled pork sandwiches and it was wonderful! Thanks for posting.
     
  3. I will be the first to admit, I must have done something wrong because it came out a little thin. I was worried at first but after letting it rest for about 12 hours the flavors really mixed together well. I made this along with a tomato based BBQ sauce for my pulled pork and both were attacked at the party. Thanks for the recipe.

I am a newlywed living in beautiful Virginia with my husband and 3 doggies. I'm a little on the hyper side and I am happiest playing hostess and cooking for a crowd! My kitchen is my domain and I find cooking to be very therapeutic. On a day off you might find me brewing a fresh pot of iced tea and hanging out in the kitchen either cleaning and organizing or tinkering with recipes! I rarely follow favorite recipes to a "T", preferring instead to allow my creative side to take over. I especially love the holidays because it gives me even more of an excuse to bake! In the summertime I love visiting my mom and stepdad in the VA Beach area. I love the ocean and I love to go shopping with my mom!
