About Us

To say the McMasters love barbecue would be quite the understatement. After years of operating a small family-run barbecue restaurant, Mark McMasters decided to take his signature sauce to the public. So, with rave reviews from friends, family, and customers, he began bottling McMasters’ Hawg Sauce in 2017.

Since then, Mark and his family have built McMasters’ Hawg Sauce from the ground up. Over 150 stores carry Hawg Sauce throughout North Carolina and Virginia (and we’re adding new stores every week). In fact, it’s possible that you’ve come across Mark himself while he’s out sampling Hawg Sauce. You’ll find him at farmers markets, and in front of grocery stores, and general stores. In short, McMasters’ Hawg Sauce is a family business through and through, and Mark takes pride in paying special attention to making sure his sauce is perfect.

“The thing that sells it is when people taste it. It has this zing and this sweetness. I’ve worked real hard to make sure it’s the way I wanted.”
