BBQ Lovers Rejoice! You can have your Whole30 and BBQ sauce too with our list of Whole30 BBQ Sauce Brands (both Whole30 Approved and compliant).
Back in 2014, when I completed my first Whole30, there were zero commercially produced Whole30 Approved BBQ Sauces. Coming from the South, I knew I had to do something and created my own delicious recipe for Whole30 compliant BBQ Sauce. It’s so delicious and easy to make. Click here for the recipe.
Luckily, nowadays there are a variety of delicious options to choose from at your local grocers or available online to ship straight to your door.
Can you eat BBQ Sauce on Whole30?
Yes- you can have Whole30 Approved and Compliant BBQ Sauces while on your Whole30 program. Make your own sauces using approved ingredients (get my recipe here– pictured above) or purchase one of the Approved or Compliant brands listed below.
What to avoid when eating BBQ Sauce on Whole30?
Many BBQ Sauces contain sugar, natural sweeteners and artificial sweeteners such as Sucralose. Many brands label their products as sugar free, but contain monk fruit or Sucralose as sweeteners. Monk fruit extract and Agave are not Whole30 approved. Also look out for additives and preservatives that are not allowed on Whole30. You can read Whole30’s guidelines here. Be sure to read the labels and read ALL of the ingredients!
So go ahead and slather your chicken breasts, kabobs, shredded pork, beef brisket or whatever you like to top with BBQ Sauce and enjoy! P.S. Don’t forget the napkins!
More details below, but here’s a quick list of Whole30 BBQ Sauce Brands:
