You can probably figure out from the title that this post will be heavy on the sauce… kind of like the two places I’ve found that I dripped BBQ sauce on my shirt at dinner…

Bestie picked me up in the middle of the road after class and we made our way to HAIGHT’S HAWKEYE MEAT MARKET *sounds of angels singing.  Luckily we had called ahead so knew that the apple brats were fresh in the case today, as opposed to frozen like we’ve bought them before.  We walked in and the guy was like “Ahh so you were the one who called earlier.”  Duh, sir.  I think it’s a safe bet to say you don’t have that many phone calls per day and certainly not ones asking “Do you have apple brats today??!?!”

And do you know what else they had??  A new kind of barbecue sauce we’ve never had.  Yes, in case you wondering, Haight’s will toats-mcgoats be catering my wedding reception.  This particular brand was called SuckleBusters Original BBQ and as Bestie pointed out, you know it’s gotta be good when it has a seal that says “No Bad Stuff” on it.  Quality.  He and I both agree that this one has broken our top five.  Now, we shall rank them for you:

Best friend’s top 3 favorite sauces

2. Big Daddy’s http://www.bigdaddybarbeque.com/

3. SuckleBuster’s http://www.sucklebusters.com/

My top favorites

1. Big Daddy’s

2. Sweet Baby Ray’s http://www.sweetbabyrays.com/

Bestie likes his with more spice, I like mine sweeter.  Stubb’s is awesome if you like spicy (but not too hot) kick, SuckleBuster’s as well provided a nice spice in constrast to the sweetness of the apple brat.

In other news, I got to pet a sugar glider today.  Two members of 713 got new comforter sets for their beds– really classin’ the place up AND the light in the living room works again.  My stye has gotten worse and there is a small mountain of a blemish on my chin because apparently my skin thinks I am a 14-year-old boy.  It is essentially the weekend– bring on more barbecue!  And six hours in a car with my family…
