Press Releases

If anyone knows consumer interests, it’s food retailers, and they’ve responded enthusiastically to the new Budweiser Brewmaster’s Premium Barbecue Sauces and Marinades, starting to hit shelves now but with a significant availability expansion scheduled for Q1 2018. The natural combination of classic American barbecue and Budweiser, the King of beers, has come together in a new line of enthusiast sauces, representing two years of development by executive chefs from Anheuser-Busch/Budweiser and The Fremont Company. The Fremont Company will also produce and distribute the products.

The new BBQ sauces will be available in five flavors: Classic, Sweet & Smoky, Honey, Sweet & Spicy, and Bold & Spicy. The new Wing sauces will be available in Mild and Hot. The marinades will be available in Sizzlin’ Steakhouse and Buffalo Chicken while the Steak & Burger sauce brings a completely new and different flavor profile to the steak sauce and BBQ categories. These new sauces deliver premium quality flavoring to BBQ, wing, steak and burger sauces and marinades categories and consumers.

“Retailers were quick to recognize that these sauces are what consumers have grown to expect from a Budweiser branded product: unparalleled quality, smooth taste and a satisfying finish. Our product delivers on this promise and consumers will recognize the experience in everything from the packaging to the palette,” says Allen Langer, of The Fremont Company.

FREMONT, Ohio, Aug. 01, 2017 — The Fremont Company’s Mississippi BBQ sauce hit an all-American home run at the recent Sabor U.S.A. food show in Guatemala, with literally 100% of consumers formally surveyed giving the product high marks for taste, packaging and perceived quality of product. The show is produced by the USDA Foreign Agricultural Service to promote U.S. food and beverages in Latin American countries. 5,000 people attended the event held in Guatemala City earlier this year.

100% of those surveyed also indicated that they would recommend the sauce to others, representing a telling addition to their standard food fare. The traditional Guatemalan diet consists of meals made from corn, beans, rice, pork, beef and chicken, with a version of barbecuing called churrasco. A churrasco event involves grilling foods with flavorings like mint and salsa, a far cry from bold, sweet and spicy BBQ sauce. The overwhelming positive reaction to a completely new flavor indicates that the Central American country is a prime market for BBQ sauce.

The Sabor Food Show demonstrated that the taste for “real American BBQ” sauce knows no geographic boundaries. Mississippi BBQ Sauce is sold in the U.S. and in Europe.
