The Daigle Company began with the original Cajun Sweet and Sour Sauce. Other favors now on the market are Cajun Sweet & Sour Sauce (Spicy), Sweet Habanero Rib Sauce, Cajun Sweet Pecan Garlic Sauce and Cajun Sweet Applewood Jalapeno. Two more flavors will be introduced in the near future, Cajun Grillin’ Blend and Cajun Hot Sauce.
The sauces can be used for grilling, barbeque, oven-baked dishes, perfect for dipping, ribs, wings, pork fingers, shrimp, fish, stir fry vegetables and eggs are just a handful of favorites that will be delicious with the Daigle Sauces.
Daigle’s Cajun Sauce was also in a showcase in San Antonio, Texas with J.D. Davidsmeyer, with J.D.’s team XTREME BBQ. This year J.D. entered ribs using Daigle’s Cajun Sweet and Sour Sauce and placed first twice in two different competitions. At a later date in another competition, J.D. placed 1st using Daigle’s Cajun Sweet Pecan Garlic on chicken.
