This keto BBQ sauce is sweet, smoky, and delicious on everything from ribs, pulled pork, chicken, to tofu. Sugar free and low carb, it's quick and easy to make, and it keeps well in the fridge! Oh, and we're from Memphis, so we know our barbecue!

Chef's Notes

If you’d rather not use liquid smoke, you can leave it out, but you’ll lose some of the smokiness that makes this BBQ sauce so good!
