Bone Suckin Sauce

  • TASTE the outstanding flavor profiles of Bone Suckin’ Sauce, our title sponsor, in the rubs being used on the meat sold in the plates! It is wonderful and they are a home grown NC family business who have been a great partner for our event. In addition, the SAUCE TENT will have all their sauces available so you can add your own twist for that fabulous mouth watering bit of heaven! Beware, you will probably have to get some to go because one plate is never enough!
