Those who are looking to limit their intake of sugar and those faced with sugar-related dietary restrictions will now be able to enjoy two new sugar-free sauces for the barbecue from Rufus Teague. The Slim N’ Sweet and Smoke ‘N Chipotle sauces are the first-ever sugar-free options in the brand’s line of barbecue sauces.
Knowing that consumers are looking for products with better-for-you ingredients in general, Rufus Teague took it upon itself to create its sugar-free barbecue sauces with stevia. As such, the sauces come in at just 15 calories and three grams of carbs per serving.
While Slim ’N Sweet is rich, tangy, smoky and sweet, and touted as "chicken’s best friend," Smoke N’ Chipotle is a smoky and sweet sauce that’s packed with heat and perfect for pairing with pork.
