BBQ Sauce with Honey, Tamarind, and Smoke
The Original Australian's BBQ sauce is the brand's classic grilling sauce, mildly smoky and seasoned with honey, tamarind, and a pinch of chili. The well-balanced classic for barbecues – for spare ribs, steaks, and everything that spends time on the grill.
The BBQ Sauce is the smoky, mild grilling sauce from The Original Australian range, made according to the recipes of Australian chef Garry Sullivan. Mature tomato puree meets brown cane sugar, honey, and tamarind, along with garlic, onions, and a pinch of chili. This creates that savory smoky aroma that defines a good BBQ Sauce – round, smooth, and with depth.
Smoke, honey, and a mild heat
Sweet, smoky, with a gentle spice – the classic grilling sauce is pleasantly subtle, letting the meat take center stage.
The sweetness comes from honey and brown cane sugar, the fruity-tart depth from tamarind, the pod known from Worcestershire sauce. A fine smoky aroma settles over this, and right at the end, a pinch of chili provides warmth rather than fire. If you taste closely, you will find a quiet fruit note beneath the smoke.
This keeps the sauce thick enough to glaze and mild enough for children at the table to enjoy. It clings to the spoon, drizzles over the meat, and smells like a grill evening the moment you open it. A classic that has nothing to prove.
For spare ribs, steaks, and poultry
The BBQ sauce loves everything that cooks slowly over the coals: spare ribs, steaks, grilled poultry, burgers, and sandwiches. An all-around talent for the entire barbecue spread.
It shines brightest as a glaze on ribs, where it caramelizes and glistens in the heat. As a marinade, it penetrates the meat the day before; a spoonful adds smoky depth to gravies or chili con carne, and as a dip, it goes well with fries and wedges.

The crocodile that every griller knows
The Original Australian is the grilling sauce brand of Australian chef Garry Sullivan, whose recipes have been in development since the 1980s.
Its trademark is the crocodile, a wink to "Crocodile Dundee" and the Australian passion for grilling. Garry, who opened his first restaurant in Port Melbourne in 1976, turned this passion over the years into an entire family of sauces, ketchups, marinades, and condiments. He won numerous awards for them in the USA and Canada; in 2015, the Guild of Australian Chefs honored him with the rare "Black Hat."
It is the quiet centerpiece of the brand, the classic by which all others are measured. Garry has relied on honest recipes with selected ingredients for over 25 years. If it's too mild for you, reach for the spicy BBQ Sauce Hot & Spicy; you can see more from the range in the grilling sauces from The Original Australian.
In the smoker at one hundred and twenty degrees
For sticky, glistening spare ribs, brush the meat with the sauce only in the last 10 minutes, otherwise the sugar will burn. In a smoker at around 120 degrees, tough ribs turn into something tender over a few hours, receiving their glaze just before the end. The 355 ml bottle lasts for many grill evenings, served cold as a dip or warm from the pot. If you like savory spice, place the Awesome Steak Sauce right next to it.
