If there’s one thing we know to be true, it’s that there’s no such thing as good BBQ without an equally good sauce. Some would even argue that it’s the best part, but that’s still left to be debated. The right sauce isn’t too sweet, too tangy, too hot, or too smoky. It’s not overly thick or thin, but just right. You know it when you taste it. So, whatever juicy BBQ you choose to indulge in, don’t skimp on the good stuff. And, by ‘good stuff’ we mean Chad’s sauces. This fall, get cookin’ and try these delicious recipes made with Chad’s homemade sauces.

Our 5 Favorite Seasonal Beers for Fall

It’s that time of year again when the leaves begin changing colors and the air smells crisp and cold. Autumn is a unique season – one where the flavors and scents of pumpkin, maple, apple, and cinnamon alone can transport us back in time. And, it’s also the time of year where brewers are aiming to bottle up holiday-specific flavors that complement the season. Even if you’re not a fan of pumpkin spice flavor, there are plenty of seasonal beers to enjoy this fall. While some brews feature seasonal ingredients, such as cinnamon and nutmeg, others are full-bodied and malty. At Chad’s BBQ, we love the fall season – and the brews that come with it. Here are some of our favorites.
