HEAD'S RED BBQ Roselle, IL 60172 Phone: 630/440-4895   Product(s): Head's Red Sweet & Tangy BBQ sauce is a product of Head's Red BBQ which is based out of Roselle, Illinois. Head's Red BBQ Sauce was developed when I got involved in BBQ competitions in the Midwest area in 2002. Although the use of commercial BBQ sauces are allowed in competitions I was never completely happy with these sauces mainly because they all tasted pretty much the same and most were overly sweet. That's when I created Head's Red BBQ sauce. I took the homemade sauce that I always used for my home BBQ and after some trial and error in the kitchen I came up with what I thought was a good combination of a slightly sweet yet tangy flavor that complements the meat it's used on instead of overpowering it like a lot of BBQ sauces do. The sauce was a big hit and has worked well on the competition circuit garnering several awards in different area BBQ competitions including 2010 Award Of Excellence by The National BBQ Association. Although it was made initially for BBQ competitions, it is now being produced for the home BBQ cook as well. It is available in 16 oz. and 1 gallon packaging.

A 13"x18" tray of crispy rice squares can be made in less than five minutes. Our unique production process incorporates margarine into MallowCreme, thereby cutting the need to add margarine or butter.

PIGCHASER, INC. Grayslake, IL 60030-0148 Phone: 847/223-0493   Product(s): Pigchaser has 5 award winning bbq sauce flavors with a 6th flavor coming to market soon. All are gluten, dairy, fish, and soy free. Original-Starts out sweet, smoky, following a little zip, a really good classic Chicago sauce. Pineapple/Mango-Sweet & fruity sauce good on ribs, chicken, pork loin, seafood, tofu, baked goods, & when mixed with cream cheese it makes a delicious craker spread. Habanero-Made with 5 different peppers for a nice rounded level of heat, we use no cayenne powder so that lets the peppers do the work, the sauce gets a bit hotter after you open it up & store it away, add it to your next deviled egg batch. Garlic-For the garlic lover in you, nothing but bits & chunks of real garlic, great on pulled-pork & bbq, but mix some in with a ranch dressing for something different for your salads and wings. Bacon-What can we say except this sauce is the real reason behind the bacon shortage predicted for 2013, USDA approved, nothing beats the taste of real bacon, no flavoring or imitation here, try it on chicken quarters, cheese fries, baked potatoes, meatloaf, and of course your deviled egg recipe. All sauces use honey as their 1st ingredient and have won awards. We did not doctor up someone else's recipe. These flavors were created by Ron C. Slawek, owner of Pigchaser, Inc.
