Firebug Grilling Sauce Hot BBQ Sauce — Frequently Asked Questions

What is Firebug Hot BBQ Sauce?

Firebug Hot is the spicy version of the Firebug Grilling Sauce lineup. It’s a tomato-based BBQ sauce with a balance of sweetness, tang, and heat, crafted to boost flavor across meats, seafood, and more.

What are the ingredients and flavor profile?

The sauce includes: water, tomato paste, brown sugar, sugar, molasses, apple cider vinegar, distilled vinegar, yellow mustard (water, vinegar, mustard seed, salt, turmeric), honey, raspberries, blackberries, salt, dehydrated garlic and onion, spices (including chili peppers, paprika, and ground mustard), natural smoke flavor, lemon juice concentrate, and preservatives (potassium sorbate, sodium benzoate). Flavorwise, it opens with sweetness and a tangy tomato base, then delivers a peppery “pop” of heat and finishes with a refreshing lift.

What sizes or packaging are available?

On ATBBQ, Firebug Hot is offered in a **14 oz** bottle (with “Half Gallon” as a larger option). Some retailers list it as a **16 oz** bottle.

How should I use it in cooking?

• Use as a **finishing glaze** in the final cooking stage to preserve both sweetness and heat.
• Use it as a **dipping or drizzle sauce** for ribs, chicken, pork, burgers, fish, or grilled veggies.
• Lightly baste early, but reserve the bulk of the application for later in the cook to avoid burning sugars.

Will it burn or get too dark under high heat?

Yes — like most sweet BBQ sauces, extended exposure to intense direct heat can cause caramelization or charring. Using it later in the cook or over indirect heat is safer.

What is the return or warranty policy?

As a food product, returns for Firebug Hot are generally accepted only if the item arrives defective or damaged. Contact ATBBQ with proof of purchase to request a replacement or refund under their food/accessory return policy.
