I'm not a huge BBQ sauce guy, I'd rather taste the meat. The only BBQ sauce I use sparingly is Jack Miller's cuz its da bomb. Seems like all you get in Texas is brisket or whatever slathered in sauce and that's all you taste. Thoughts?

Maybe stop going to Rudy’s for a to-go chop beef sandwhich.

No remotely respectable BBQ joint applies the sauce for you

What the other two said. Texas BBQ is pretty much anti-sauce, but will provide it on the side if you want it.

That’s done in east Texas. Which is really just an extension of the south and it’s ways.

Texas barbecue eschews sauce. Whether it is the German style Central TX bbq which is widely considered "Texas BBQ", or if it is West Texas Ranch style bbq, or south Texas tejano style. All of those are against sauce.

While German style Central texas bbq has swept the state and nation, there are still old joints in Houston, Dallas, etc that do a different kind of bbq where often they will sauce things up. Those are dying off, however

Then you have a very limited exposure to Texas BBQ and are in fact a complete moron.

Texas BBQ is much more about dry rubs and the sauce is almost always on the side.

Uh, you sure you're not in Kansas City?

If you are in fact in Texas what places are you going to?

Texas BBQ is the shite because it requires the meat to stand on its own. No hiding bad BBQ with sauce.

(*Though I do love a good eastern carolina sauce with my pulled pork)

Have you ever actually been to Texas?

Or just other places that that say they are making Texas bbq?

We have had a spot at the BBQ cook off at the Houston livestock show for over 20 years. We dont use any kind of BBQ sauce on anything... beef, pork ribs, or chicken. Every year we have a number of guests ask if we have any BBQ sauce before they taste a single thing.

About10 years ago we put 4 bottles of ketchup, a quart of vinegar and an entire container of ground pepper into a metal pan and heated it up for anyone wanting to ruin good bbq. Had dozens of people ask for the recipe. Every year we do something stupid to ketchup and people ask for the recipe. I’m convinced that people that like BBQ sauce on everything are going to like about any sauce available.

Huh? Texas BBQ typically doesn't have sauce. They'll provide it if asked, but it certainly isn't "slathered in sauce." The picture below is a good example of a Texas BBQ plate/platter.
