I sometimes use a drop in my chinese curries - tastes great (authentic Chinese BBQ curry!).

I think I bought mine (a different brand) from Waitrose last Summer - in the BBQ section.

I've just had a look in the cupboard. The stuff I use is called 'Cattlemen's Hickory Smoke BBQ Sauce'.

I may have bought it at Morrisons, not Waitrose?

Their website:-

A UK site for many sauces and rubs is here:-

Liquid smoke is considered a carcinogen. I'm betting that's the reason it's not available anymore!  :o :-\
