BBQ Sauces - Supermarket favorites and beyond?

What raises my transplanted Southern eyebrow is a commercial product that uses a prepared product like Worcestershire sauce. Vinegar, molasses, oily fish, tamarind, allium, … sure. Great Grandma Margaret’s BBQ sauce at a farmers market with Worcestershire sauce in it, sure. If Kraft decided to use the Lee & Perrins brand on a line of barbecue sauce and cross promote, okay. Otherwise, at commercial scale, I don’t see anything to be proud of by using and citing Worcestershire sauce, and I’d wonder about the quality of communication between the food scientists and the bean counters.
