Sauces & Condiments

Low carb sauces and condiments are where a lot of hidden sugar gets caught. A tablespoon of regular ketchup has about a teaspoon of sugar in it, and barbecue sauce is worse. This collection gathers the versions that cut it out: ketchup, BBQ and steak sauce, hot sauce, dipping sauces and marinades, pickles and relish, salsa and chutneys.

G. Hughes Smokehouse covers the most ground, with BBQ sauces, dipping sauces, marinades and a sugar-free steak sauce. Crazy Mooskies makes ketchup and no sugar added BBQ sauce, Rude Mama does fruity Vietnamese-inspired hot sauces, Mt. Olive handles pickles and relish, Mrs. Renfro's makes salsa, and Aki's Fine Foods brings chutneys.

Check net carbs per serving and the sweetener; sucralose, stevia and erythritol each taste different in a tomato base. Fume-eh's smoked olives and tapenades also live here.
