We tried eight different South Carolina-style, mustard-based barbecue sauces and this one came out on top. It’s thicker in consistency and leans slightly more brown in color than the typical yellow (thanks to the addition of punchy brown mustard). And while others seemed closer to plain mustard than a complex sauce, the Congaree Gold balances the mustard’s pungency with a good amount of sweetness, a touch of savory Worcestershire and just a hint of vinegar acidity. We find it won’t overpower the satisfying fattiness and sweetness of pork (the most common use for the sauce) because of its rounder, more complete, tempered taste.

How to use

Punchy mustard-based barbecue sauce is the most distinctive variety to come out of the Carolinas.

This South Carolina staple was brought to the “midlands” of the state by early German settlers and has since become popular across the region. It always features a distinctive yellow mustard punch at the fore, enhanced by sugar, vinegar and spices. We especially love this one from the Palmetto Sauce Company named after the river that runs through central South Carolina. It’s a simple recipe, but widely beloved. Seriously, fans will sop up any remaining sauce with bread when they run out of meat so as not to waste it.

HOW TO USE

A sauce like this where mustard is the star is typically paired with pork. Though, we love it slathered on a stacked turkey or pastrami sandwich. A drizzle adds a touch of zest to an otherwise traditional potato salad and the spicy, palate-clearing mustard does wonders to cut through fatty fried foods when used as a dip.
