2024 Sauce King NYC™ Winners

The seasoning scene was sizzling in 2024. This year, the Sauce King NYC™ Judging Panel tested a heap of outstanding sauces and spice rubs from all over the world. International entries poured in. Sauces and rubs arrived at The Bronx Beer Hall, aka the Sauce King NYC™ home base this year, from the UK, Japan, and Thailand. We unofficially dubbed it the year of the rub: with more spice rub submissions than ever before, the Sauce King NYC™ ballot was absolutely bursting with flavor.

The Sauce King NYC™ Judging Panel faced the heat, the sweet, and the salty to choose the 2024 Sauce King NYC™ winners and standouts, including the Grand Champion and Metro NYC Startup Duane Joseph Award. Many recipients of the Metro NYC Startup Duane Joseph Award have used the recognition to successfully launch their brands commercially. Sauce King NYC™ is thrilled to help make dreams a reality. Read on for the full list of the Sauce King NYC™ 2024 winners and standouts.
