Most bottled versions taste like straight cayenne and vinegar with nothing behind them. This one leans on real garlic to give the heat somewhere to land, built the same way they've built every sauce that's carried their name to nine World BBQ Championship titles: tested on actual wings, not just on paper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe flavour\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFront: butter and vinegar, sharp and familiar. Middle: roasted garlic pushes through, rounding the cayenne heat out instead of just piling more on top.
