“I was expecting this to be quite spicy but it’s not! You actually taste the sweetness first and then after a few seconds the heat comes through. This is definitely a sweet barbecue sauce and there isn’t much of smoky flavor. The heat/spice level is mild but noticeable. It’s also quite a salty barbecue sauce. I think it makes a really versatile barbecue sauce and I bet it’d be amazing on ribs.”

youtube.com →“Hot honey is all the rage right now — the sweet and spicy condiment works on pizza, as a dipping sauce for meat, or as a marinade. This Kinder’s Honey Hot BBQ Sauce from Costco seemed like the perfect addition to our summer barbecuing, so I picked up a bottle to try. I feared it might be too hot to handle, but was pleasantly surprised by its subtle heat.”
