From My Home to Yours. Whether you use it to simmer meatballs or to brush on a brisket, you're sure to fall madly in love with this tangy-sweet homestyle BBQ sauce. Chunks of tart apples and the comforting flavor of brown sugar set this sauce apart from all others. Good enough to eat with a spoon! - Ree. Questions? Comments? 888-496-0017. This smooth and sweet BBQ sauce is a favorite of Ree Drummond--a Food Network celebrity who writes a successful blog called The Pioneer Woman. She specializes in down-home country cooking so it’s no surprise this Pioneer Woman Apple Brown Sugar BBQ sauce conjures tastes of fresh apples plucked right from the farm, blended with decadent dark brown sugar. In fact, while you should simmer meatballs in this sauce or brush it on a brisket, don’t be ashamed to dig in with a spoon. Ree would heartily endorse it.
