What reviewers say
Retailer customer ratings for Kinder's Bourbon Apple BBQ Sauce are consistently high, averaging 4.5-4.6 stars across hundreds of reviews that praise its balanced flavor and versatility. In contrast, one detailed editorial taste test ranked it last among ten Kinder's BBQ sauces, criticizing it as overly sweet and candy-like with no detectable bourbon notes. Aggregated customer comments from multiple grocery sites echo appreciation for its non-cloying taste and good balance, suggesting broad appeal despite the outlier professional critique.
Pros
- Great balance of flavors, not overly sweet
- Versatile for dipping, glazing, or grilling
- High customer ratings across major retailers
Cons
- Tasted impossibly sweet like candy, not like BBQ sauce
- No bourbon flavor detected in taste test
“While most of the Kinder's sauces on this list ranged from good to great, the same cannot be said for bourbon apple. It's not too often that you stumble across a BBQ sauce that's borderline inedible, but I fear that this Kinder's offering teeters dangerously close to such territory due to an impossibly sweet flavor profile that read more like candy than anything else.”
