Chilli Ranch Barbecue Sauce
After more than six years of experimenting, refining, tasting and tweaking, our Chilli Ranch Barbecue Sauce is finally here.
This isn’t just another barbecue sauce—it has been a genuine labour of love. From the very first experimental batches, countless visitors to our Chilli Ranch shop sampled and gave their honest opinions, helping shape the recipe into what it is today.
The breakthrough came when I took Versions 8 and 9 to our family Christmas dinner. Everyone was asked to taste both without knowing which was which. The verdict was unanimous—Version 9 was the clear winner. I was ready to put it straight into production, until my wife pointed out that we’d only completed shelf-life testing on Version 8! So the recipe had to wait.
Last year we finally produced another batch of Version 9, completed the required shelf-life testing, and it passed with flying colours. Now, after years of patience, it’s finally ready for your table.
Unlike many supermarket barbecue sauces that are loaded with sweetness, Chilli Ranch Barbecue Sauce is inspired by traditional Texas-style barbecue. Rich, savoury and full of depth, it’s made with onions, garlic, our own home-grown red chillies—typically Jalapeño, Fresno and Serenade varieties—and our very own handcrafted Chipotle chillies, smoked right here on the ranch in our commercial smoker.
The result is a beautifully balanced barbecue sauce with a gentle warmth rather than overwhelming heat, allowing the smoky, savoury flavours to shine through.
Perfect as a marinade, a basting sauce during cooking, or simply served alongside your favourite barbecue dishes. Try it with brisket, ribs, burgers, sausages, chicken, pulled pork or even as a dipping sauce for chips.
Heat Rating: 🌶🌶☆☆☆ (2/5)
Authentic. Smoky. Rich. Crafted with patience and made the way great barbecue sauce should be.
