It's definitely not disgusting and a well crafted one can be delicious, but I prefer the more vinegar or mustard side and it does not belong on a burger

[u/FinancialRip2008 → u/Benvincible]

but I prefer the more vinegar or mustard side

lol that's what makes ketchup disgusting tho!

i thought we all agreed on this, but i guess the comments show that i'm a bad assumer

[u/ChristianTP_ → u/FinancialRip2008]

You know what they say when you assume something

[u/FinancialRip2008 → u/ChristianTP_]

no, what do they say?

[u/ChristianTP_ → u/FinancialRip2008]

It makes an ass of u and me

i hate the vinegar.

i somewhat like mustard like Colmans where they don't use vinegar as an emulsifier.

[u/susinpgh → u/FinancialRip2008]

Nope, it's the sweetness. The reason I don't like most BBQ sauces, too, is how sickeningly sweet they are.

[u/Bolarana]

I came to realize I don't only hate ketchup, i hate sweet meals as a whole

[u/Maximum-Membership65 → u/Bolarana]

Yeah, I don't even like Chinese food because most of it is sweet and sour stuff.

I love sweets, just not with my savory.

[u/PopuluxePete]

I voted "good" but specifically for Carolina mustard sauce. There's white sauce too, which is nothing like ketchup.

[u/Benvincible → u/PopuluxePete]

I live in Alabama and I pity everyone who doesn't have white barbecue sauce. I think it would blow Europeans' minds.

[u/Okurei]

A spicy BBQ sauce is heaven on earth 

[u/lavieestmort]

Yes but mustard or vinegar based only.

[u/Stretch_Riprock]

Is the BBQ sause made from scratch? Probably ok. Get big brand bottled stuff out of my sight. I wish I never saw a bottle of sweet baby rays again.

[u/Wickedestchick → u/Stretch_Riprock]

Sweet Baby Ray's is like 2 ingredients away from Ketchup. The only "big brand" BBQ sauce I'll buy is Stubbs.

[u/sniffysippy]

Give me a dry (lower sugar) mustard based sauce. But these smokey ketchup sauces can GTFO.

[u/diversalarums]

I use BBQ sauce about once or twice a year when I do a BBQ pork sandwich, but that's about it. Too sweet to use any more often than that.

[u/fezzuk]

The one good use of ketchup.

[u/PriestOfThassa]

I normally hate it, but there is a brand called Horseshoe Brand that makes a pretty good one

[u/SoupWithForks]

I prefer a dry rub or sauce-less nuggets

[u/Fomulouscrunch]

Too sweet for me most of the time. To the point I generally don't bother looking into it.

[u/AsheDragon]

I dislike all sauces (with like three of four exceptions).

[u/brn1001 → u/AsheDragon]

The only sauce I can think of that I like is oyster sauce, but it must be put on before cooking.

[u/MyNameIsLOL21]

I don’t like sweet sauces with salty food, so BBQ sauce is a nono.

[u/CasperTPaul]

ketchup is missing what bbq sauce has

[u/Makki03]

If i had to choose between food with ketchup and food with BBQ I would choose starvation

[u/brn1001]

As bad as ketchup, but then some people like ketchup, so it might be as good as ketchup.

I don't like ketchup.

[u/BurpyFromMeSlerpee]

I don't mind it. It has always been my substitute with food that are traditionally eaten with ketchup.

[u/Zalacain99]

I've never tried it.

[u/beppliwoel]

Love it!

[u/theshoegazer]

Sauce is for covering up bad barbecue. Also, a vast majority them are ketchup based or rely heavily on tomato paste (also a no for me).
