About Our Sauces

Great barbecue needs no sauce.

Great sauce needs no barbecue.

Whatever your preference, we've got you covered. Eat your meat with sauce. Eat your sauce by the spoonful. Pour it into a glass and drink it.

We're not here to judge.

Made from Scratch

All of our signature and specialty barbecue sauces are made with

premium ingredients, and each batch is meticulously adjusted to taste by our talented kitchen staff. No two batches of sauce are exactly the same,

but all are equally delicious.

From Kansas City to the Carolinas, our selection of sauces

will satisfy any palate. Whether you prefer to

dress your meat with mild cilantro-garlic Wight Sauce,

spicy chipotle-based Mind Flayer Sauce, or something in between,

chances are you'll find your new favorite at Pit Fiend Barbecue.
