    In case you SOMEHOW managed to resist binge-watching Season 3 of Queer Eye, the Fab Five found themselves with their first-ever sister-Heroes in the third episode of the new season, Mary and Deborah Jones.

    The sisters run their own BBQ joint, Jones Bar-B-Q, with their signature Jones Bar-B-Q sauce serving as the heart of their business. With the help of the Fab Five, the sisters bottled up their sauce for the first time, and just over the weekend, the sisters revealed they sold over 11,000 bottles!!!

    Luckily, we were able to get our hands on the sauce and spoiler alert: it's our new water!

    Before trying it, we needed something to dip the sauce into and the closest/quickest option was a nearby Jack in the Box, so we acquired some chicken nuggets to get this party started.

    Finally, it was time to give the beautiful sauce a taste.

    Christian's thoughts: I was VERY hesitant to try this sauce because I'm not a BBQ sauce person — I'm *that* garbage American who will put ranch on everything — but after watching the episode, I HAD to try it! After one drop of this sauce on my buds, I was fully baptized into the Church of Jones Bar-B-Q Sauce. It was exactly what the bottle claims — sweet AND savory — and let me just say, this sauce made Jack in the Box nuggets taste like a delicacy. Sorry ranch, I found a new love.

    Rating: 10/10 (!!!)

    Christopher's thoughts: Barbecue sauce is my favorite condiment, so I had very high hopes going. From the first taste, I was blown away! IF YOU ARE ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE who loves sweet and savory, this is a dream! It packs a powerful punch of flavor in which you can taste so many different flavors. It's truly tangy, hickory, brown sugary bliss and I am greatly concerned that I've just gotten addicted to a really damn good sauce that's going to be somewhat tough to acquire because it's so freakin' popular right now.

    Rating: 10/10 (I don't ever give 10/10 on food things but I promise you, it's really THAT good!)

    TL;DR: Yup, it's THAT good. Below are the nutrition facts and ingredients, in case you were curious:
