PittGuy 201 Posted July 20, 2013 How many post op'ers have tried BBQ'd meats? My favorite foods are smoked pulled pork and brisket. In moderation is this something i will be able to eat again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
music1618 879 Posted July 20, 2013 I'm a Texas girl so yes I have tried BBQ since the surgery. I can eat it, but in very small amounts. It makes my pouch feel full after a few bites. But bbq baked Beans are now one of my favorite things to eat and Go down well. 1 PittGuy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anniesmom12 181 Posted July 20, 2013 i stayed away from bbq sauces because of the brown sugar in most.... but lately I have tried and been ok with baked Beans. I have tried some pulled pork and as long as I chew it really well I do fine, just really light on any sauce I put on it. Hope you are able to enjoy some of your favorites.... it makes for a really tough road when you feel you are denying yourself so much! Just take it easy and let your pouch tell you if its a go or not! You'll know right away what it likes or doesnt. 1 PittGuy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cookier224 238 Posted July 20, 2013 I can eat bbq meats (small amounts) no sauce, one of my favorite restaurants is 4 Rivers here in Orlando FL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nel 189 Posted July 20, 2013 I eat them too. There is a local supermarket here that cooks ribs and chicken wings. I buy them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SoccerMomma73 1,867 Posted July 20, 2013 Had pulled pork twice this week, little sauce, no issue. Ive been very lucky though and other than some dumping with high carb foods and queasiness with super greasy foods, I can eat everything I used to eat. Granted, the amount is hysterical compared to previous! I don't seem to like meat in general as much as I used to though.

PittGuy 201 Posted July 20, 2013 I bet a Carolina style sauce would be good to use. I will have to do some home work and try making RNY friendly options on my smoker Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PittGuy 201 Posted July 20, 2013 I will have to try that spend a brown sugar in my rub and see if I can't make a BBQsauce with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SoccerMomma73 1,867 Posted July 21, 2013 I will have to say, for the amount of rub and sauce I eat, the sugar content had not been an issue (and I'm a dumper!) how much rub/sauce can you put on 1 rib....but yes, keep us updated with your recipes Pitt!!!!

PittGuy 201 Posted July 21, 2013 I don't put tons of sauce on my pulled pork but it would be nice to have a sauce that wasnt to full of sugar for grilling chicken or using with turkey meatballs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jeepchick42 193 Posted July 21, 2013 I don't know how you feel about bottled sauces but Walden Farms makes a sugar free one. I have not tasted it but I know you can get it at Walmart.
