Bold, smoky, sweet, tart, and spicy, KC Masterpiece defines the common conception of barbecue sauce, but while its standard flavor won't let you down, it also probably won't impress.

Bacon = awesome. Barbecue = awesome. So bacon barbecue should equal double awesome, right? Logic isn't exact in Pigchaser Bacon Barbecue sauce when good flavor is brought down a notch by soft and chewy bacon bits.
