KC Masterpiece Fiery Habanero Honey Barbecue Sliders


Did you know KC Masterpiece barbecue sauce was created in Kansas City – where people love to barbecue – and it’s still the number one selling sauce there? Well, we may not be in Kansas City, but here in Texas we do love to barbecue!

In fact, Colby has been known to grill in both torrential rain as well as snow. He REALLY likes his barbecue. But, there are times when he will settle for not grilling and the food is just as tasty.

During the winter months, the slow cooker becomes one of our most used kitchen appliances. It makes dinner easy and the entire house smells delicious all day long! THAT is perhaps one of my favorite parts. The anticipation that accompanies the aroma can almost be too much.

Today it was his Fiery Habanero Honey Barbecue sliders that did it. Oh my! The spicy habanero mixed with the sweetness of root beer creates an incredible flavor explosion with every bite.

The great thing about the slow cooker is how simplified it can make dinner time. Yes, there is an element of preparation that begins over breakfast or perhaps on your lunch break, but come dinner, you just need to set the table.

This makes the end of a busy day less stressful and more about the meal. Sort of like what the KC Masterpiece Fiery Habanero Honey Barbecue Sauce does for the sliders.

The real habanero heat — perfectly balanced with sweet honey — leaves less work when cooking the pulled pork.
