How to Make the BEST Low Carb BBQ Sauce

Low Carb Recipes

Cris here.

My family has been eating low carb for a little over 6 months (at the time of writing this post) and I can honestly say — professional on-again off- again dieter that I am–it is the easiest “diet” that I have ever tried. (Psst… check out our low carb recipes here.)

However, that does NOT mean that we don’t miss some of our old favorites, so I sometimes try to rework some of our favorite recipes to reduce the amount of carbs. Sometimes there are really great ingredient substitutes, sometimes there are really expensive substitutes that we use sparingly and then sometimes there really aren’t any substitutes that we like.

That is the case for BBQ sauces. Prior to low carb, we were BIG sweet BBQ sauce fans and I cooked with it a lot. However, I just couldn’t quite find a low carb BBQ sauce that I enjoyed as much. So, I set out to make an easy one that I could easily whip up and use in our recipes. Everyone in my family LOVES this sauce.

Notes on The BEST Low Carb BBQ Sauce

• We love using this Low Carb BBQ Sauce in our favorite recipes that call for BBQ sauce to lower the carb count. It tastes more like our favorite sweet and smoky carb-filled bbq sauces than a lot of the pre-bottled low carb bbq sauces on the market.
• We provided an amazon referral link to our favorite sugar alternative, however if you want to make a bulk purchase, you may find it cheaper to buy directly from Sukrin (not sponsored– just what we use).
• Looking for more recipes? Our Recipe Finder can help you find exactly what you need.
• Check out all our favorite recommendations for cookbooks, slow cookers and low carb essentials in our Amazon Influencer Shop.
• As with any of our recipes, carb counts, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly. As a result, your nutritional content depends on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish. The auto-calculation is just an automated estimate and should NOT be used for specific dietary needs.
• Cooking times are always a basic guideline. Recipes should always be tested first in your own slow cooker and time adjusted as needed.
