FOX NEWS: Florida veteran creates BBQ sauce using only Sunshine State ingredients
TAMPA, Fla. - Chef G’s "Florida BarBQ Sauce" was created right in Ybor City. All four flavors include ingredients from the state of Florida.
Chef Gaston Meredith created the sauces under his parent company, Gaston’s Culinary Services. They provide catering services throughout the Tampa Bay area. Gaston, or Chef G, used a lot of barbeque sauces in his catering business and wanted to create one to call his own.
"I did my research and there isn’t a sauce that’s considered Florida-style BBQ sauce," he recalls.
So, he created a sauce with Florida staples like citrus, strawberries, and peppers exclusively grown in the Sunshine State.
Chef G has four flavors: Classic, Heatwave, Florida Gold Honey Mustard, and Fusion. Fusion is a mix of the other three sauces.
