I guarantee if you add a little crushed red pepper ( pizza peppers) to a little of it you will be very surprised. I put it right on the lowest rack (so it wont drip on to other racks). It just adds a bit of spice the flavor is same just adds a spicy aftertaste. I just sprinkle it on the meat as it goes in smoker
