Wee Willy's specializes in real simple - real good comfort foods and family favorite recipes. Our initial success came from the most unlikely place, Lynchburg, Tennessee.

You see, we were following our passion for food. No, not just any food, but Americas food, barbecue. We had developed a simple, yet tasty barbecue sauce that was based on our family favorite recipe. It complimented our Minnesota Style Barbecue perfectly and it met our goal of being real simple - real good. We also developed our dry rub, which real turned out to be a dry marinade. Together the sauce and rub fused perfectly together crating our signature Minnesota Style of Barbecue.

We were influenced by many flavors:

• the thin vinegar sauce that makes North Carolina style pulled pork. It was places like Scott's award winning barbeque or the Sky light Inn that defines that famous North Carolina Barbeque.
• the sticky tomato sauce that put Kansas City style on the map with the help of Gates BBQ, Arthur Bryant's BBQ and of course slow smoked barbecue beef brisket.
• the dry rub the signature that makes Memphis style barbecue and those dry ribs. Made famous by Rendezvous grilled baby back ribs sprinkled with their dry rub and of course there is Corkys BBQ were you can get wet ribs or dry ribs, your choice.
• the thick, smoky, spicy and molasses sauce that put Texas style barbecue on the map and added depth to our inspiration

Each year Jack Daniel's hosts the most prestigious barbecue contest in the world, The Jack Daniel's World Champion Barbecue Contest in Lynchburg, Tennessee. Every competition barbecue teams dream and goal is to just get invited to cook the "Jack."

We could not have been more thrilled then when the judges appreciated our simple yet tasty approach to barbecue sauce; a true old fashion sauce with just enough richness and complexity. The Wee Willy's World Champion Barbecue Sauce we sell today is the same sauce that helped us win the prestigious Jack Daniel's World Championship Barbecue Contest. Jack Daniel's, a huge supporter of competition barbeque also sponsors the World Barbecue Sauce contest held in Lynchburg, Tennessee. We are honored to have won them both.

We are happy to share our award winning barbecue sauce recipe along with our other world champion barbecue recipes with you today: Wee Willy’s Award Winning, World Champion Barbecue Sauce.

One of the tricks that we learned early on, as we developed our method of barbecue (Minnesota Style Barbecue) was that several layers of flavors rather then on overwhelming flavor was much more appealing.

Layers of flavors, even simple ones tease and tantalize the taste buds. You should always leave people guessing a bit and always wanting more. When you layer flavors it is much easier to create that "WOW" factor people are looking for from food.

• The first layer of flavor when preparing meat, seafood, poultry of even veggies is start with the best quality possible. Seek out freshness, because there is no substitute. Your local butcher / meat cutter is priceless so get to know them because if you take care of them they will take care of you.
• Wee Willy's White Barbecue Sauce was originally used as a slather sauce or marinade. We used in competition to help our Seasoning Blend (Dry Marinades & Dry Rubs) stick to the meat and help form our signature bark (crust) on our barbecue ribs, pulled pork, barbecue chicken and beef brisket that locked in the flavor and moisture. It was our second layer of flavor.
• Our signature seasoning blend / dry marinade serve to two purposes: 1) it is formulated to seal in foods natural flavor by forming a bark (crust) on the meats surface. 2) to enhance the meats natural flavor but not to cover it up.
• We use wood pellet to provide the smoke flavor. We found that BBQrs delight smoke pellets are very consistent. Remember, you are looking for the flavor, essence, from the wood not just smoke.
• To main barbecue sauce is barbecue but to us it is just one of the layers of flavor. No one layer more important than they other.

It didn't take long for our family to discover that Wee Willy’s White Barbeque Sauce tasted even better as a dipping sauce for just about everything. It is a quick, convenient and easy way to add flavor to any recipe and it makes the best coleslaw ever, now that's comfort food.

Wee Willy's new grilling sauces also work great as a marinade / slather sauce, basting / mop sauce, finishing sauce / glaze or at the table for dipping.

We are equally proud and extremely excited to introduce Wee Willy's newest products.

World Champion Barbecue Tips

Tired of all the confusion and misinformation that surrounds barbeque? Ever tried to follow the barbecue techniques from the barbeque books? If so, you too have found yourself confused and discouraged just like us. Their recipes may be fine but their methods never seem to work. It either takes much longer than the recipe states or the temperatures are so low you end up making jerky.

The initial barbecue we made was miserable and we were confused and frustrated. In a last ditch effort we went back through the information we had gathered. There was a lot. Through experimentation we built a solid foundation so we too could create our own World Champion BBQ.

We would like to share our World Champion Barbeque we call, “Minnesota Style Barbecue”, with you! We will share our techniques, information and most of all true barbecue wisdom with you. For example:

• The proper use of wood when barbecuing and it's not for the smoke.
• Our World Champion Barbeque Recipes including step-by-step details.
• Even the simplest recipes have a Wee Willy’s twist to them.

So no matter if you are a first time barbecuer or a seasoned competitor, there is something to be learned at weewillys.com. Remember, Barbecue is America’s Cuisine, so be sure to share it with your friends and family. Enjoy!
