The Story Behind Candy Apple's!

Candy Apple's BBQ is a licensed, family owned and operated business, located in the heart of the Mid-South where people are passionate about their barbecue! After researching different flavor styles from areas such as Kansas City, Memphis, Texas and the Carolinas, we have developed our own unique flavor profiles.

Were a current member of KCBS and MBN societies respectively, and we’re proud competitors within the barbecue circuit. Master cook, Lee Stanback, has a background in chemistry and engineering which he applies to his recipes in order to create perfection on the grill, in a bottle or a jar.

"I have always been passionate about BBQ and delivering an exceptional product. I took that same passion into the laboratory (kitchen); I was focused on developing a product that you could not find on the market anywhere. After a lot of research, development and formulation changes the 'Luv Rub’ and 'Juice Is Loose' was discovered."  --L.S.

Here at Candy Apple's BBQ, we use premium raw materials from local vendors, to formulate our homemade seasonings and sauces. That's right! We use natural ingredients, purchased right here in Jonesboro, Arkansas. We use the correct combination of ingredients, to deliver that desired mahogany color and more robust flavor to your grilling or smoking favorites. Unlike our big-name competitors, Candy Apple's products don't contain any added chemicals preservatives to boost the flavor or color profiles. We don't need to.  Our all-natural signature sauces and rubs are the gold standard.
