How to store it

USDA FoodKeeper guidance for Barbecue sauce (bottled) (Condiments, Sauces & Canned Goods).

WhereHow longNote
Pantry—Refrigeration ensures that commercial sauces and condiments stay fresh for a longer period of time. Shelf-stable commercial barbecue sauce is safe when stored at room temperature after opening. Quality, not safety, is the reason the labels on these products suggest that they be refrigerated after opening.
