I have looked over the customs site ( https://www.gov.uk/duty-free-goods/bann ... cted-goods ) and I don't see where commercially prepared and sealed BBQ sauce and BBQ rub would be prohibited when flying into London Heathrow.
Am I missing something or will these items be allowed?
Has anyone done this before with no problems?
Thanks!

As long as it's in your checked bag you will be fine, they are too big >100ml to go in hand baggage.

You can bring up to £390 of stuff tax free. As long as it is not fresh meat or dairy, you should be fine: https://www.gov.uk/bringing-food-animal ... to-uk/food

Yep done it just put it all liquids in your checked bag not in hand luggage and you will be fine

I came back from the US a couple of weeks ago laden with sauces and rubs. Just pack them into your checked luggage and you'll be fine, no need to disclose them to customs.
