Triple Crown Organic BBQ Sauce Black Garlic (14oz, 1-pack)

Not every great barbecue sauce needs to lead with sweetness. When you're grilling steak, smoking brisket, or preparing savory chicken and pork, you want a sauce that adds depth without burying the flavors you've worked to develop.

Winner of a 2019 Good Food Award, Triple Crown Black Garlic brings an award-winning combination of Asian culinary tradition and American BBQ heritage to a convenient 14 oz bottle.

Traditional barbecue sauces often emphasize sweetness, smoke, or vinegar. Triple Crown Black Garlic takes a different approach by introducing the savory complexity of aged garlic.

The manufacturer describes this sauce as more savory than sweet, with an aromatic and umami-forward character that distinguishes it from conventional BBQ sauces.

Its flavor combines an ingredient long associated with Asian cooking and the familiar foundation of American barbecue, making it particularly appealing to people who enjoy exploring different culinary traditions.

Black garlic is garlic that has been aged under controlled conditions, developing a dark color and a more complex flavor than fresh garlic.

It is appreciated for its savory depth and rich umami character.

In Triple Crown Black Garlic BBQ Sauce, aged garlic contributes the distinctive aromatic character that makes this variety different from traditional sweet or tomato-forward barbecue sauces.

Triple Crown Black Garlic BBQ Sauce received a Good Food Award in January 2019 in San Francisco, California, according to the manufacturer.

This recognition belongs specifically to the Black Garlic variety, making it a distinctive selection for shoppers interested in award-winning specialty barbecue sauces.

Its unusual combination of aged garlic and American BBQ flavor provides an interesting option for cooks who enjoy gourmet condiments.

Rich beef dishes are a natural match for savory, umami-forward flavors.

Try Triple Crown Black Garlic BBQ Sauce with grilled ribeye, sirloin, tri-tip, or smoked brisket.

For brisket, serve the sauce on the side so guests can enjoy the meat's bark and smoke flavor while adding their preferred amount of black garlic character.

For burgers, use it as a finishing condiment when you want something different from ketchup or a traditional sweet BBQ sauce.

Black Garlic BBQ Sauce can also bring savory depth to pork barbecue.

Brush onto smoked ribs toward the end of cooking, after the bark has developed, or serve alongside pulled pork sandwiches.

Its more savory-than-sweet profile makes it an appealing alternative for people who don't want their pork barbecue dominated by sugary sauces.

Grilled chicken thighs, drumsticks, and wings offer another opportunity to enjoy the sauce's aromatic black garlic flavor.

Brush lightly onto chicken during the finishing stage of grilling or serve it as a dipping condiment after cooking.

When applying BBQ sauce over direct heat, monitor carefully to avoid scorching.

Triple Crown identifies its barbecue sauces as vegan, making Black Garlic an option for plant-based cooking according to the manufacturer.

Try it on grilled mushrooms, smoked tofu, roasted cauliflower, grilled eggplant, or plant-based burgers.

The savory character of aged garlic is especially appealing with vegetables and other ingredients that pair naturally with umami flavors.

Triple Crown's story began with founder Richard Schaaf, who spent approximately 15 years creating and refining his original barbecue sauce recipe.

His sauce went on to win three Minnesota State Fair blue ribbons:

• 1994: Minnesota State Fair Blue Ribbon
• 1997: Minnesota State Fair Blue Ribbon
• 2001: Minnesota State Fair Blue Ribbon

Following these awards, interest grew as friends and coworkers enjoyed Richard's homemade batches. Triple Crown BBQ Sauce began reaching retail shelves and commercial kitchens in 2009.

Award distinction: The Minnesota State Fair ribbons reflect the brand's original BBQ sauce history. Black Garlic separately received a 2019 Good Food Award.

Triple Crown states that all of its barbecue sauces are USDA Certified Organic, non-GMO, gluten-free, and vegan.
