Thick and golden — honey sweetness against the tang of prepared mustard, in a squeeze bottle, which is the right package for something you'll mostly use as a dip.

Mustard sauce is Carolina territory and it belongs on pork above all: a shoulder sandwich, a chop, a ham. It's also the best thing in this lineup for anything fried — tenders, nuggets, pretzels, catfish.

Blues Hog will tell you it works as a salad dressing too. They're not wrong, though that's not why most people buy it.

Size: 24oz squeeze bottle.

The other tangy option, sharper and thinner: Tennessee Red.
