Round 1, matchup 8, the family fight that closes the round. Regular BBQ has a million variations and an identity crisis. Honey BBQ is the order Moe actually places, almost every single time he gets wings. The closer of Round 1, in his own words:

Barbecue versus honey barbecue? I get honey barbecue almost every single time I get wings. I love good honey, and I love good barbecue. It's the absolute perfect marriage in the barbecue sauce world.

Honey barbecue, albeit not super fancy, may have a chance to win the whole thing! Don't sleep on one of the true GOATs.

But what is regular barbecue? Is there such a thing these days? There are about 1 million different variations on barbecue sauce, so I guess it's gotta be the plain brown tangy sauce that kids dip their chicken nuggets in.

There are some shitty barbecue sauces out there. I mean, what is it? Ketchup and molasses and brown sugar? How can you mess that up? So many brands do. Either it's because they're using crap brown sugar and molasses. Or, their people just don't have refined palates like The Train. I mean, who does, but that's a different story!

Honey barbecue, albeit not super fancy, may have a chance to win the whole thing! Don't sleep on one of the true GOATs.

The verdict

Honey BBQ takes matchup 8 and moves on to Round 2 of the Moe Train Picks wing sauce bracket.
