I am too cheap to splurge on Carolina Treat, but was wondering if there are any close copies out there I can make at home?
Where are you located. Target's brand - Archer Farms makes a Carolina Sauce. There is another here in Texas called Carolina Gold. Not the same I know but not a bad substitute.
You should buy a bottle and then work on a home version.
BTW, it's 'Treet', not 'Treat'.
Here are the ingredients on the bottle. Go for it.
Water
Vinegar
Wheat flour
Soybean oil
Paprika
Garlic
Onion
Xanthum gum
Spices
Good luck :D
