Lucille’s Smokehouse Bar-B-Que, the award-winning destination for authentic Southern bar-b-que that has welcomed guests with slow-smoked meats and down-home hospitality since 1999, announced the November 5 launch of Black Gold, its first new signature bar-b-que sauce in over five years. Building on 25 years of bar-b-que craftsmanship, Black Gold brings black garlic, slow-aged until dark and sweet as molasses, to two brand-new, celebratory entrees:
- Black Garlic BBQ Baby Back Ribs: Lucille’s signature tender, slow-smoked baby back ribs brushed and glazed with rich, dark Black Gold BBQ sauce.
- BBQ Tri Tip with Black Garlic Butter: Tender, certified Angus Beef tri tip smoked to perfection and crowned with a decadent Black Garlic Butter Sauce.
Also launching on November 5 is a new Pumpkin Top Cocktail with Ketel One Vodka, Owen’s Espresso Martini Mix, and vanilla syrup served on the rocks with housemade pumpkin cold foam.
Both are coming to the menu just in time for the holiday gathering season and will be available at all 19 Lucille’s locations across California, Nevada and Arizona.
Lucille’s has built a reputation on the hallmark of great Southern-inspired bar-b-que: expertly seasoned meats, patient, low-and-slow smoking, scratch made favorites, and genuine Southern hospitality. That dedication has the earned the brand repeat reader-voted honors for its Southern specialties over the years. Black Gold marks the latest step in Lucille’s evolution, introducing a distinctive new flavor while honoring the smoky richness and comforting, soulful food that define the brand.
“Black garlic is having a moment, and we saw an opportunity to bring this bold flavor to the comforting bar-b-que our guests know and love,” said Joan Hansen, vice president of marketing for Lucille’s Smokehouse Bar-B-Que. “Black Gold is a meaningful addition to our sauce lineup, balancing deep savory notes with a natural sweetness that pairs beautifully with our slow-smoked meats. We’re excited to introduce this new flavor and give our guests something special to enjoy as we head into the holiday season.”
