About Yes, Dear BBQ

The Begining

Yes, Dear BBQ started where great barbecue begins—with a backyard, a smoker, and a passion for chasing the perfect bite. As transplants to Savannah, Georgia, we found a new home, new friends, and a community that shared our love for great food and good times. What began as a backyard BBQ competition team grew into years of cooking, competing, experimenting, and learning what it takes to create truly memorable barbecue.

The sauces came later, born from the same recipes and flavors that helped us stand out on the competition circuit. After countless cooks, competitions, and feedback from fellow pitmasters, we bottled the flavors we loved sharing with friends, family, and BBQ fans everywhere.

What makes Yes, Dear BBQ different is simple: our sauces weren’t created in a test kitchen—they were forged in competition. Every bottle carries the experience, dedication, and pursuit of flavor that started around the smoker. Competition tested. Wife approved. Built for pitmasters, backyard cooks, and anyone who believes great barbecue is meant to be shared.
