Messy Sauce, Clean Label

Red Gold’s new Naturally Balanced one-gallon jug Barbecue sauce is made with all of the good stuff and none of the bad. For pizza operators who are paying attention to what consumers want, offering this new clean label Barbecue sauce is a smart choice. Check out our new video to learn why.

Datassential recently asked consumers what they DIDN’T want, and their voice was clear.

High fructose corn syrup (HFCS), artificial ingredients and preservatives are no-no’s among consumers.

While other Barbecue sauce’s first ingredient is high fructose corn syrup, Red Gold’s first ingredient is tomato puree. Red Gold’s formula uses real sugar, has 75% less sodium than other Barbecue sauces and has zero artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives and its gluten free. Does it taste good? Absolutely.

From BBQ chicken pizzas to the all-important dipping sauce of choice for everything from chicken strips and nuggets to wings, the first thing customers will notice is the rich sweet and smoky flavor of the Red Gold Barbecue Sauce.

“Offering a great tasting sweet and smoky Barbecue sauce flavor was our first priority in bringing this new Barbecue sauce to pizza operators,” explains Megan Rhetts, Red Gold’s Foodservice Marketing Manager. “This new Barbecue sauce is so versatile and tastes great! The fact that it is also clean label is a benefit we think operators, and their customers will appreciate.”

Offering clean label products is smart for attracting Gen Z and Millennials who are driving tomorrow’s growth in restaurant sales. Likewise, it’s important in your digital and social media marketing as a new Datassential consumer survey found nearly 1/3 look for health and nutritional information from a restaurant and 26% say the information is sadly lacking.

Nearly 60% of consumers look to restaurants to share information related to health and nutrition.

Red Gold® is known for providing value to its commercial customers, and the new Barbecue sauce is a great example.
