ckf Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 @Seatofmypants (Mike) has his new website up and running, and is ready to start taking online orders. I haven't tried Shore Thing or Gold Rush yet, but the other 3 are fantastic! Also, for the guys that have tried Mike's BBQ sauce, could we get you to write an honest review of one of the sauces? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may be able to work something out with Mike, but I'm guessing it would be super expensive. @Seatofmypants Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shipping food to Canada is complicated from my understanding. There is certificates and inspections from what I understand...... We looked into if for MOMO but it didn't look like something that was very practical, unless you know of a different way! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev144 Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 I figured that would be the case, thanks Mike! If I'm heading into the US anytime soon I'll figure something out! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

f7ben Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 I love the sauce but the cost is up 33% from a few months ago. No quart or gallon options and after shipping it makes no sense to use the stuff. Need bulk options for me. After shipping its $85 a gallon or more. Great sauce....cant pay that for it unfortunately.

It isn't up 33%. CKF has a promo code for FS members. Pints are still around $7 after the discount and the shipping I am pretty much taking on the chin. Shipping 'up to' 10 bottles will be way more then $14.95.... come on...... I used 1 case to feed 600 people the other day..... that's about $.15 per guest in sauce cost.

That's 33% more. I'd use gallons of the stuff. I cant buy it by the pint. I'm not attacking you here....simply stating what we discussed several times. I used up the 2 gallons I got from you like it wasnt even there. That was using it sparingly Everyone loved it but even at $70 a gallon it's too much.

I love the sauce....I just cant buy it by the pint. I didn't take it that way. We are exploring bottling gallons, but they are still going to be expensive, relative to the big brands. My ingredients eat me alive (honey, seasonings, real sugars). I also need to bottle 48 gallons of any one flavor.....and that is scary, when I have a home for the pints. It may be next year but we will get to that point eventually if it continues to be popular. I do have some local restaurants using it so maybe we will be doing it sooner then later.

Neal They do in a pinch. They can make for a good base to start anyway. Stock form they work really well to cover up poorly cooked meat....those are who they are marketing this to anyway.

I've served your sauce in some form to a couple hundred people just with the limited supply I had. I've got guys bugging me to get them in on an order already. I'll talk to the guys that want it and maybe we'll see what we could do on shipping for maybe like 40 pints. When you decide to give the gallons a try I'll preorder especially if its spring. At least you know you have a start on moving some. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
