One of our most popular flavors, Texas Pepper Jelly Rib Candy™ Apple Cherry Habanero blends two bold fruits with the fiery kick of habanero for a BBQ glaze that's a true standout. It’s a favorite of Matt Pittman, founder of Meat Church™, and a go-to glaze for competition ribs and backyard pitmasters alike.
This smooth, pourable BBQ rib glaze is easy to use—just brush it on during cooking, use it as a finishing sauce, or drizzle it right before serving. The combination of apple and cherry creates a deep, fruity base, while the habanero adds a warm heat that lingers without overpowering. For heat seekers, try the “2X” version with double the peppers.

- Bold Fruit Flavor: Apple and cherry blended with just the right heat

Whether you're competing or cooking at home, Apple Cherry Habanero Rib Candy™ gives your BBQ that unforgettable sweet heat finish. It’s more than a glaze—it’s a secret weapon for serious flavor.
How spicy is the Apple Cherry Habanero Rib Candy™?
The original version offers a warm, balanced heat that complements the fruit without overpowering it. For more intense spice, try the 2X version with double the habanero peppers.
What meats go best with this sweet heat glaze?
This glaze shines on ribs, pork shoulder, chicken wings, and even smoked turkey. It also works great as a finishing drizzle or dip for grilled sausages or meatballs.
Can I use this during the cook or only at the end?

Is this the same glaze used by Meat Church™?

With over 35 years of smoking experience, we started DDR BBQ Supply with a simple goal: to help others cook better barbecue. We've spent decades learning what works and what doesn't, and we apply that knowledge to every product we carry. From high-performance grills and smokers to carefully selected rubs, sauces, and tools, everything we offer is something we believe in and use ourselves. We don’t believe in cutting corners or selling gear we wouldn’t rely on during our own backyard cooks and when we compete in BBQ competitions.
