I know this doesn't belong here but figured the most people that may care would see it here. I just found Dinosaur BBQ sauce at Publix. It was just a small bottle and they only had original flavor, but it's a start.

My mother said she just found Hoffmans at the publix in Vero beach also. Next...Wegmans and our take over of the south will be almost complete :)

Picked up a couple bottles in Syracuse at Christmas to take back south. It's so good. Thanks for the heads up, I don't often frequent Publix.
 
Somewhat of a tangent but people down south love Publix. I went to one and it was like a subpar Tops.

Really? Maybe Tops has stepped up their game. The Publix in the Raleigh area I go to on occasion I would say is a subpar Wegmans. Of course everything in my eyes is subpar to Wegmans. But nonetheless, I found it to be more Wegmans and less Tops/Hannaford.

Then Florida needs to step their game up
 
The recipe to make the sauce at home is pretty easy too. I'll make about 8-10 jars at a time and it freezes well.

Buddy of mine who lives in KS was in CNY this weekend. This is what his trunk looked like when he headed back home...

I think it's still cheaper there so anytime I have family coming down I'll have them bring some, but I like knowing it's there if I run out.
 
Do tell.
Mutha Sauce
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 cup onion, minced
1/2 cup green pepper, minced
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
Pinch of kosher salt
Pinch of black pepper
2 tablespoons garlic, minced
1 can tomato sauce (28 ounces)
2 cups ketchup
1 cup water
3/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/4 molasses
1/4 cup cayenne pepper sauce
1/4 cup spicy brown mustard
3/4 cup dark brown sugar, packed
1 tablespoon chili powder
2 teaspoons black pepper, coarsely ground
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1 tablespoon Liquid Smoke (optional)

Pour the oil into a large saucepan and set over medium-high heat. Add the onions, green peppers and jalapenos and stir. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper and cook until soft and golden. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute more. Add everything else except the Liquid Smoke. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat so the sauce simmers. Simmer for 10 minutes. Swirl in the Liquid Smoke, and let the sauce cool. Pour into a container, cover and store in the fridge until ready to use. Makes 6 to 7 cups.

I also use an immersion blender to make sure it's nice and smooth. Lots of ingredients but not tough to make, and it's worth it. I usually double the recipe and make a ton of it and sometimes make it a bit spicier.

I've also used their rub recipe for ribs, and they come out awesome:
1/2 cup paprika
1/2 cup kosher salt
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated garlic
6 tablespoons onion, granulated
1/4 cup chili powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Wait...what's wrong with Piggly Wiggly?

I had a boss who loved this joked, and told it over and over again.

Dolly Parton, famous singer who spun out many a top 10 hit for years, was a famous Hollywood celebrity who amassed a fortune over her career, has decided to get into the grocery business. She has bought the chains of Piggly Wiggly, and Harris Teeter, and the combined stores are to be re-branded as Big Wiggly Teeters.
 
Make anyone that comes to visit me in Cali bring out at least 2 bottles of Country Sweet sauce. Its the one thing that I can't do without.

I'm sure the Publix are better in NC than in FL since they are their newest stores. It will be interesting when Wegmans finally breaks ground in Cary since Publix will have several stores in the area by then

I'm about 35-40 minutes to that Cary location. I don't care how many Publix I drive past, I'm bringing a cooler and doing my weekly/bi-weekly grocery shopping there from day one.

So many transplants down here, I believe Wegmans will do excellent business.
