Fit barbecue sauce is a reduced-sugar, lower-calorie take on classic barbecue sauce. It adds a sweet, tangy, smoky flavor to grilled foods, and works as a dip, glaze, or table sauce.
Fit barbecue sauce is made to be lower in sugar and calories than many regular barbecue sauces, so it may taste less sweet. The exact flavor and thickness vary between products.
Fit barbecue sauce pairs well with grilled chicken, burgers, meatballs, roasted potatoes, and grilled vegetables. Use it as a dip or spread it in a sandwich or wrap for a smoky, tangy flavor.
Yes, Fit barbecue sauce can be used to marinate chicken, tofu, or vegetables. Keep food marinating in the refrigerator, and discard any sauce that has touched raw meat rather than serving it as a dip.
Brush Fit barbecue sauce onto food near the end of grilling. Even reduced-sugar sauces can scorch over direct heat, so adding the sauce late helps prevent a bitter, burnt coating.
For a homemade Fit barbecue sauce, simmer tomato paste with vinegar, garlic, smoked paprika, and a small amount of sweetener. Adjust the tang and sweetness as you go, then let the sauce cool before serving.
Fit barbecue sauce is not necessarily spicy; its usual flavor is sweet, tangy, and smoky. Heat depends on the recipe, and you can add chili flakes or hot sauce if you want a spicier dip.
Keep Fit barbecue sauce tightly closed in the refrigerator after opening. Use a clean spoon when serving, and discard the sauce if you notice mold, an unusual smell, or a change in appearance.
People with diabetes may be able to include Fit barbecue sauce in a meal, but reduced-sugar does not mean sugar-free. Account for its carbohydrate content, and ask your clinician or dietitian how it fits your individual plan.
Fit barbecue sauce can help lower the calories in a meal when it replaces a more calorie-dense sauce. It does not cause weight loss by itself, so use a portion that fits your overall eating plan.

Fit barbecue sauce is a lighter, reduced-sugar take on barbecue sauce, the tangy, often smoky condiment commonly made with a tomato base, vinegar and spices. It brings a sweet-and-savoury flavour to grilled food without needing a generous pour.
Across English-speaking kitchens, it is served with grilled chicken, burgers, ribs or vegetables, and works as a dip or sandwich spread. Its texture is usually smooth and pourable, with a balance of tang and gentle sweetness. At 45 calories per 100 g, it can suit those looking for a lighter sauce; try brushing on a thin coating near the end of grilling, or serve a small portion alongside the meal.
