Trader Joe’s Sriracha BBQ Sauce

Trader Joe’s Organic Sriracha and Roasted Garlic BBQ Sauce

According to the website: price and availability may have changed. 🙁


This was my favorite sauce for everything a few years ago.  I say it in the past tense, because I think it might be R.I.P. time for this elixir of goodness.  The Trader Joe’s website speaks of its limited availability.  It was only $2.99 a bottle back in 2015!!  Oh well, like my favorite Star Trek: The Next Generation episode, “All Good things…”  The next time I go to the store I’ll have to see if there are any more hidden on the shelf.

The sauce in my opinion was just a perfect blend of about 80% normal sweet BBQ and about 20% slight spicy kick afterwards from the sriracha.  This made it amazing on hamburgers, steak and even jasmine rice!  Unlike other sauces like Tabasco, A1, and even traditional Sriracha itself, it really complemented grilled meat and didn’t overpower or ruin it.

My attempt at a fancy lunch: Hamburger and Pepper Jack cheese, a bit of leftover papaya salad, grilled asparagus, squash and pumpkin, along with Coca-Cola and some grapes and a peach!

Pictured is the sauce with its friend, the Huy Fong California USA made Sriracha sauce we all know and love.  The ingredients in the Trader Joe’s sauce seems pretty complicated.  I once attempted to make a poor man’s version by mixing sriracha and McDonald’s BBQ sauce.  It was not the same.

About Me

About Me

Hello there! My name is Boon, an artist/photographer out of the Atlanta, Georgia area. I guess you could say I'm also a "tour guide" of sorts for visitors, or even friends who haven't strayed from their culinary comfort zone. I haven't been everywhere, but I've been lucky enough to share plenty of delicious meals with friends and family over the years!

So for those of you thinking about visiting or even moving to the "sleepy south," hopefully you'll quickly find that the metro Atlanta area is so diverse with some of the best food!

Thanks for visiting my food blog--an offshoot of all my random adventures with friends and family.

About Atlanta, GA, U.S.A.

Atlanta, specifically Gwinnett and DeKalb County has some of the best Asian food in the southeast U.S. In fact, some folks from surrounding states drive 4-5 hours here just to eat and grocery shop!

We are definitely spoiled as you can find everything from Korean, Ethiopian, Indian, Indonesian, Mexican, Chinese, Lao, Thai, and Vietnamese food--combined with dozens of Asian coffee and dessert hang outs.

If you're new to this area, brave our horrible traffic, and just take a drive up and down Buford Hwy, Jimmy Carter Blvd and Pleasant Hill Road. So much to eat in every direction! :)

Meet me for Dinner! :)
