You can bet it's pretty high.... most BBQ sauces are loaded with sugar.

I went to TGIF today for lunch with some friends. First time I had been there in years. Anyhow, I played it safe and got the Chicken Caesar Salad with no croutons or garlic bread. I also asked first to make sure the chicken wasn't breaded (made that mistake the other week). Anyhow, it was very yummy and satisfying and I wasn't even tempted to steal a french fry from my friend.

Enjoy your dinner.
Maybe DWLZ.com would have carb counts. I went to that site a lot when doing Weight Watchers.

I am sure the sauce is off limits but you can always ask your server. Your server should be able to find out all of the ingredients for you. Some places prepare ribs without the sauce but most usually marinate the ribs in the sauce than add some more right before serving.

You can also contact TGI Fridays via email to find out the ingredients and nutritional information. I have done this a few times with other resturants and manufacturers. The link to email is:

Hope this helps!

Hard to know with sauces, but one thing I do know is that the sauce on TGI Friday's buffalo wings (at least the ones they sell in the frozen aisle) is sugar free. A whole box of these (2 servings) is only about two carbs. So their buffalo wings might be a good bet.

Good luck!

Enjoy your dinner!

The Jack Daniels grilling sauce is quite high in carbs. The receipe calls for pineapple juice, brown sugar, teriyaki sauce, whiskey, garlic, crushed pineapple and a couple of other things. Sure is good!
