Product Update: Byron’s Fully Cooked Pork BBQ

From Summer:

I heard back from representation of Byron’s BBQ and they said, “Please tell Summer thank you and also I appreciate the feedback on some of the ingredients….good to know.” If HFCS or corn syrup are a concern of yours then keep on the lookout for Byron’s BBQ and any possible changes they may make to their ingredients. Since they’re actually listening and following, I’d like to add that I’d love to see them at Costco (in addition to their BJ’s and Sam’s Club) since that’s the wholesale warehouse I belong to exclusively.

Byron’s Fully Cooked Pork BBQ Review & Layered BBQ Salad Recipe

My MOMS Club of Woodinville (MCW) recently had our End of Year Party. This is our biggest and best party of the year, and mostly highly attended. This year our party was catered by “For the Love of Food” a new company by one of our members. She homemade most of our magnificent dishes, but also on the menu was Byron’s Fully Cooked Pork BBQ.

We had a tray that boasts feeding 30 sandwiches and was 4lbs of meat. We maybe got 30 sliders out of it. They recommend ¼ cup of meat as a serving with 33 servings in the tray … we MCW women must like our meat since our tray didn’t stretch that far. You can enjoy Byron’s Pork in sandwiches as we did or get some new ideas on the Byron’s recipe site.

Layered BBQ Salad Recipe
Serves 8

3 cups Byron’s Fully Cooked Pork BBQ, warmed according to package directions
1 can baked beans
2 cups colorful coleslaw
1 bag (10 ounces) frozen whole kernel corn, thawed
2 cups green bell pepper, diced
Pickled okra for garnish

Heat baked beans on the stove on medium heat until warm (about 5 minutes), stirring occasionally. Layer bottom of a serving dish with the heated baked beans, followed by an even layer of corn kernels and then a layer of green bell peppers. Place an even layer of BBQ on top of the bell peppers, followed by the coleslaw. Place pickled okra on top for garnish.

I found Byron’s to be fully tasty and, unlike other pulled pork I’ve had, Byron’s is not fatty and fully meaty. I can pronounce all the ingredients which I love about a product, but I don’t like that one of them is High Fructose Corn Syrup which is in the ketchup in their sauce. There is also corn syrup in the Worcestershire sauce concentrate.

Byron’s is available at local stores as well as at Sam’s Club and BJ’s though products are not available at all locations so you’ll have to check your local store.
