AUSTIN, Texas — Gabrick BBQ Sauce Co. announced today that World Market has selected the company to represent the Texas region of barbecue sauces with the nationwide launch of its signature Texas Tang® BBQ Sauce and Candy Jalapeño® BBQ Sauce. The products are now available in all 247 World Market stores spanning 38 states, giving customers across the country access to authentic Texas barbecue flavors.
For founder Mark Gabrick, the announcement marks another milestone in a journey that began during one of the most challenging periods in the company’s history.
“When our restaurant was forced to close during the pandemic, we made the decision to pivot instead of quit,” said Mark Gabrick, founder of Gabrick BBQ Sauce Co. “We poured everything we knew about Texas barbecue into our sauces, and it’s incredibly rewarding to see them chosen by a national retailer like World Market.”
The two sauces selected for the rollout showcase distinct expressions of Texas barbecue.
Texas Tang® BBQ Sauce is crafted with simple, natural ingredients, sweetened with honey, and uniquely made with chicken broth to deliver a smooth, thinner consistency that complements barbecue instead of overpowering it. Its signature balance of sweetness, tang, and gentle heat has made it a favorite for brisket, pulled pork, ribs, and barbecue sandwiches.
Candy Jalapeño® BBQ Sauce blends real jalapeños with a touch of sweetness to create a bold yet approachable flavor profile. With a mild-to-medium level of heat, the sauce delivers layers of sweet and spicy flavor that pair equally well with ribs, chicken, burgers, and grilled favorites.
The World Market launch continues the company’s rapid growth since earning recognition as a 2021 winner of H-E-B’s Quest for Texas Best, one of the state’s most competitive food product competitions. Today, Gabrick BBQ Sauce Co. products are carried in more than 250 H-E-B stores, Scheels Sporting Goods, the Faire wholesale marketplace, and approximately 800 independent retailers throughout the United States.
Founded in Texas, Gabrick BBQ Sauce Co. is committed to producing authentic barbecue sauces using quality ingredients and traditional Texas flavor profiles while remaining true to the craftsmanship that built the brand.
Consumers can find Texas Tang® BBQ Sauce and Candy Jalapeño® BBQ Sauce at World Market locations nationwide and online while supplies last.
