After hearing the senior board members tout this magical elixer, I finally broke down and had a friend in SC bring me down a few bottles. I made 2 butts this weekend and used it for a dipping sauce. Bearing in mind that I am brand new to smoking and to any vinegar based sauce, a few observations: It is thicker than I thought and almost feels like the consistency of paint, although thinner than Dijon mustard andCYM. It is unlike other yellow vinegar based sauces I have had, in that, it is bold and very vinegary with a touch of mustard.
Conclusion: I really liked CT, and find the more I explore the vinegar based sauces, I like them more than the traditional red sauces. In fact, I have noticed that they (red sauce) are all tasting very sweet to me lately. I would definitely pay for a few bottles to get shipped to me now that I have tried it and liked it. I also know they don't sell anything similar here in South Florida.

CT has a website where you can order it online.

I'll check it out. I think my next step will be to try to make a few sauces I see on the recipe site.
CT also has flour in it, so it is meant to be used as a 'cooking' sauce...
It is quite a bit milder after it has cooked down on the outside of a butt/brisket/pork loin/turkey.
I love the stuff, and I dump it on almost everything I put in my smoker(s)!
The CT is good stuff. The NC CT is better than the SC CT.
Now try some scotts.
CT is some of the best vinegar based cooking sauce that I have tried, most of the others are to sweet fro me.
If you liked the CT cooking sauce try your pork sammie, cooked with CT on and in it, with some yellow sauce on the sammie. I got the yellow sauce recipe from 10.5, its on the recipe site now.
I get it by the case when we go to NC. Have a trip in March to Ft Bragg to see one of the sons. CT CT CT
You can also get it from Scott's Place...

My case of four is on its way!!!!
The CT was a hit in the pulled pork. I'm dying to try that stuff on some grilled buffalo wings :D

That stuff is great on wings.
I did some hot-n-spicy wings this weekend usin CT, I made a post in the Poultry link, it aint much of a post but the flavor was huge.
I also have used it for wings and it was great. I really love this stuff to the point of hoarding the last of the bottle that NePaS traded to me. I can't bring myself to use the last of it on something unworthy of it's flavour. Now that I am back to work, once the money starts to roll in I will be getting a couple of big bottles.
