About Fox & Hound BBQ Sauce | Award-Winning BBQ Sauce from Lake Tahoe

Born in a Lake Tahoe Smokehouse at 7,380 Feet

Fox & Hound BBQ Sauce wasn't created in a food lab or developed for grocery store shelves.

It was born inside Fox & Hound Smokehouse Grill & Bar, a family-owned Lake Tahoe restaurant that has been serving authentic slow-smoked barbecue since 1991.

Located in Stateline, Nevada, at an elevation of 7,380 feet, our smokehouse has spent more than three decades serving ribs, tri-tip, pulled pork, smoked chicken, and handcrafted barbecue to locals and visitors from around the world.

Every bottle of Fox & Hound BBQ Sauce contains the same recipes we serve daily in our restaurant.

Restaurant-Tested BBQ Sauce

Before our sauces ever reached store shelves, they were tested where it matters most—on thousands of restaurant guests.

High Altitude Heat became our signature tri-tip sauce.

Mountain-Style Vinegar was crafted specifically for pulled pork.

Lake Level Mild earned its reputation on our award-winning smoked ribs.

Unlike many commercial BBQ sauces, our recipes weren't developed for mass production. They were perfected over years of daily service in a busy smokehouse.

That's the difference between restaurant BBQ sauce and shelf-first BBQ sauce.
