Nutritional yeast is extremely good and I only found out why through vegan meals but it is absolutely poo poo for cheese substitutes despite what online recipes would have you believe. If you can't stop eating cheese then just eat cheese

None.
They literally make their own or at the very least heavily doctor store bought sauces.
No "bbq nerd" buys a premade bbq sauce.

Like most folks will use something (and don't quote me exactly here, alright?) like a combination of tomato paste, brown sugar, molasses, mustard, various spices and other ingredients to create their own thing. These will be more heavily based on one flavor profile or another on preference, but like hell are you gonna see 'serious' bbq people using sweet loving baby rays

And that would be the 'serious bbq' people that even allow sauce to be used. Most use rubs.

e: I should also tell you that I am not a serious BBQ guy but have both made my own sauces and also use sweet baby rays just based on whatever the hell I feel like making. So. Yep.
ee: Stubb's is also a real good brand of store bought sauce. Tends to be a little tangier, so if you're looking for a different flavor profile than "CORN SYRUP INDULGENCE" give that a shot.

Lemon and fresh tarragon to brine chicken before grilling.

Not marinade. Brine.

The more tarragon the better. I haven't really hit a thresh hold where the tarragon takes over in this process.

I dunno what it is about that flavor profile but holy smokes that sweet grassy herbal flavor, combined with what brining does to even cheap as poo poo chicken drumsticks on a grill? poo poo that's better than any BBQ sauce or whatever I've done for them. If you aren't brining chicken you're fuckin up for your whole drat family.

If you're going to troll about Barbecue you need to pretend its a synonym for grilling out.

I was just sayin' you asked about BBQ nerds and that's the general take on it.
Honestly putting the sauce together if you do it yourself probably takes like 15-30 minutes or whatever unless you're being super pedantic about it and like I said, if you want to use store bought poo poo because you need a fast lunch that's totally the way to go.
But if you're putting on a weekend thing for folks that's how most "serious" people are going to look at it.

You could also make a batch of sauce once and just keep it in squeeze bottles. They sell them for like a buck on amazon and that poo poo keeps for a couple weeks unless you're using stock or something in the sauce. So boom there you go. Out-sauce-nerded.

:agreed:

Stubbs is by far and away the best store-bought BBQ sauce. Sweet baby rays is literally pure corn-syrup: for comparison, SBR is 16g sugar for 2 tbs, pure corn syrup is also 15g sugar for 2 tbls. stubbs is 1/4th of that

there's some weird cultish poo poo over some coastal nerds proclaiming 24/7 love of SBR trying to cosplay as a simpleton 'keeping it real' midwesterner and it's weird as hell because it's pretty bad and embarrassing when you can just by Stubbs instead

I almost forgot about this.
There's these two dorks from Wisconsin that do a bunch of tailgate/grilling poo poo, for Packers and Badgers games. Things like that. The kind of guys the local news shows pick up but only might ever have their own local access show. They've been around forever.
Mad Dog and Merrill. Think..hawaiian shirts and brats and you're spot on. BUT they launched a line of products that's surprisingly good.
Below is an image of their lineup.
The #one sauce is actually a great bbq sauce. Think a cross of stubbs and sweet baby rays, but it actually has a texture to it. Most likely onions or other spices. The Grandma Hazel rub is FANTASTIC. It's all semi-generic stuff over-all, but for two local guys to put out good products that are easily accessible and GOOD for what they are? It's kinda neat.

lee kum kee siracha is imo better than the rooster stuff. it's got some fish paste and other stuff in there, makes it just a bit more complex.
