Local Family’s Inspector’s Choice BBQ Sauce

By: Jenna Howle

  Inspector’s Choice BBQ Sauce, created by Slaton’s own Trevor and his family, has quickly become a local favorite, offering a unique blend of sweet and spicy flavors. Trevor, a passionate barbecue enthusiast, started experimenting with sauces to elevate his competition cooking. His efforts paid off, leading to multiple top finishes and the creation of the award-winning sauces now on store shelves.

   The journey to market was challenging, involving meticulous recipe development, branding, and navigating the complexities of food production. The standout flavors, Raging Raspberry and Amazing Apricot, are made with real fruit, providing a natural sweetness with a perfect kick of heat. The family also crafts a specialty Peach sauce with local peaches, sold exclusively at The Idalou Harvest Company.

   Inspector’s Choice BBQ Sauce has gained a loyal following, thanks to its versatility and the family’s personal approach to business. The sauces are available at local Slaton stores like United, RedLine and Co, Twisted Gypsy, Paulines, and Slaton Bakery, as well as in several locations across Lubbock and beyond. Customers can also order online at www.inspectorschoicebbqsauce.com.

   The family is excited to launch their new Cherry flavor for the holiday season and has plans for future product expansions. Their success is a testament to their passion, hard work, and the unwavering support of the Slaton community.
