Stubb's Jalapeño and Honey Bar-B-Q Sauce

Organic honey and jalapeños are the two extras McCormick names. The same paragraph keeps the tomato and vinegar base, then adds garlic and black pepper.

The bottle is 18 oz. The copy says that when Stubb moved to Austin in 1986 he corked hand-filled whiskey bottles with a jalapeño. Bottling methods changed later. The page does not say where this jar is filled.

McCormick has owned the brand since the 20 August 2015 purchase of the Austin company. No Canadian plant is mentioned. The barcode on the product record is 00734756010937.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Stubb's jalapeño honey sauce made in Canada?

Stubb's jalapeño honey sauce does not list a Canadian factory. McCormick, the owner, said the business headquarters would stay in Texas.

How is this different from Stubb's Original?

This page adds jalapeños, organic honey, and garlic on top of the tomato and vinegar base. Original's blurb stops at tomato, vinegar, molasses, and black pepper, and it does not mention honey.

Is the honey certified organic?

The McCormick copy says natural sweetness from organic honey. It does not show a certification logo or a certifier name on the text fetched here.

Who owns the jalapeño honey sauce?

McCormick & Company owns the Stubb's range, including this jalapeño honey sauce. The Austin, Texas seller was bought on 20 August 2015.

Why is there a jalapeño in the brand story?

McCormick says Stubb corked early hand-bottled sauce with a jalapeño after he moved to Austin in 1986. That detail is history, not a claim about the cap on this 18 oz bottle.
