BBQ Sauce
NORTHWOODS LG BBQ SAUCESFrom the Upper Peninsula and Northern Michigan to the Carolina Coast, Northwoods LG BBQ is built on a passion for great food, outdoor adventure, and authentic flavor.
Our sauces are inspired by countless miles traveled, meals shared around smokers and campfires, days spent on the water, and years of learning what great barbecue should taste like. Every bottle reflects the traditions of the Northwoods while embracing the bold flavors that make Southern barbecue legendary.
At Northwoods LG BBQ, we believe barbecue should enhance your food, not cover it up. That's why our sauces feature a smooth, versatile consistency that works equally well as a marinade, finishing sauce, glaze, dipping sauce, or cooking ingredient.
Whether you're preparing fresh-caught fish, wild game, chicken, pork, beef, ribs, brisket, burgers, shrimp, or pulled pork, our sauces are crafted to deliver bold flavor while allowing the natural character of the food to shine through.
Today, Northwoods LG BBQ products can be found in restaurants, retail locations, outdoor events, and specialty venues throughout Northern Michigan and the Upper Peninsula, with continued expansion throughout the Carolinas, Tennessee, Florida, and the Southeast.

About Northwoods LG BBQ Sauce
Built for the Outdoors. Inspired by the Journey.
Northwoods LG BBQ wasn’t created in a boardroom. It was built around campfires, smokers, fishing trips, backyard cookouts, long weekends on the water, and countless miles traveled across America.
Over the years, we’ve experienced flavors from the Midwest, the Carolinas, the Gulf Coast, the Florida Keys, the mountains, and everywhere in between. From fresh-caught fish cooked dockside to slow-smoked barbecue shared with family and friends, we’ve learned that great food brings people together no matter where you are.
Those experiences became the foundation of Northwoods LG BBQ.
Based in Northern Michigan, our sauces, seasonings, and rubs are crafted for people who love the outdoors and appreciate honest food. Whether you’re smoking a brisket, grilling burgers at deer camp, cooking salmon by the lake, lobster or gamefish in the Florida Keys, preparing wild game after a successful hunt, or feeding friends at a summer cookout, our products are designed to complement the lifestyle we live every day.
Our flavor profiles are inspired by years of exploring regional barbecue traditions, coastal seafood cooking, Southern seasoning techniques, and classic American outdoor cooking. Every bottle reflects a commitment to bold flavor, quality ingredients, and the belief that great meals create lasting memories.
At Northwoods LG BBQ, we believe the best conversations happen around a smoker, a grill, a campfire, or a dock overlooking the water. That’s where stories are shared, friendships are built, and traditions are passed down.
We’re proud to call Northern Michigan home, and we’re honored to bring those experiences and flavors to your table.
Whether you’re on the lake, in the woods, at the campground, at a Harley rally, around the smoker, or gathered with family in your backyard, we’re grateful to be part of your next meal.
