Who adds horseradish to their sauce.

ammaturesmoker · Oct 16, 2017

I was talking with a guy at church today. He said one of the secret ingrediances used in BBQ sauces from the Memphis area is horseradish. He said his family that is distant has done it for years and is a zing addition if used with all spice and chili powder. He said many of the famous places in Memphis know this and will not give it out.

I'm going to try that, cause I love horseradish & I think it would compliment my sauce recipe.
Thanks for posting that!

We rarely use bbq sauce on our meats but sometimes i smoke ribs with a
maple or honey/horseradish sauce for my family. I only taste a bone of two, as i prefer non-sweet meats but the horseradish does a good job on it.

Sounds about right. Just as long as it doesn't get to close to a cocktail sauce flavor.

Edit. I love bacon and horseradish chip dip.

I often use horseradish in my BBQ sauces, but not the creamy sauce stuff. Normally, I just grate fresh horseradish root, but from time to time, I'll use homemade prepared horseradish that I've made by grinding the root and adding vinegar and salt.

The Mrs makes our BBQ sauce and I don’t know what all her ingredients are (I think they change a little from time to time ), but I know Horseradish is always a part of it.

This is the sauce I use when I slice my tri-tip and make sandwiches. More horseradish = better. It is my own recipe, but obviously I stole bits and pieces from lots of other sources.

Horseradish sandwich sauce
½ cup sour cream
½ cup mayonnaise
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
½ cup prepared hot horseradish
1 teaspoon minced garlic
½ teaspoon kosher salt

I am SO making this. My wife is not a horseradish fan at all. I am. I've got a TT in the freezer. After I smoke a turkey this week, that tri tip is next. Point!

I hope you like the sauce. I think you will find that it works amazingly well on some things, but certainly not everything. I find it works best with smoked beef, like tri-tip.

In that sense it is very much like BBQ sauce. For pulled pork, I still prefer BBQ sauce, especially the recipe I purchased from one of the owners of this site. But, even though I love that on pulled pork, I still use Sweet Baby Rays on other things, and for chicken I still love the original Bullseye.

Make sure you use really fresh lemon and garlic. The lemon is not something you are going to taste a lot, but if you use an old lemon, it really takes the edge off.

"You can call me Ray!" Hah! I hadn't seen or heard that in decades.

Just don't call me Johnson!

It does jazz up many things!
