Cape Cod Sweet Mesquite Barbeque Potato Chips

Taste test: These kettle-cooked chips had a lot of color to them, a deep and dark orange, with additional darker flecks of flavoring.

Covered Bridge Potato Chips Smokin' Sweet BBQ

There was enough powder on the chips to leave residue on my fingers. The chips were very crunchy, and a lot of that crunch took away from tasting the barbecue flavor, which wasn't very bold or over-the-top (despite all of the powder). There was definitely a hint of sweetness on the barbecue, but less mesquite or smokiness than I expected. Overall this was a pretty safe barbecue taste, especially if you prefer sweet barbecue flavor rather than smokey or spicy.

Smell test: There was a barbecue smell, but it was a deeper aroma rather than a barbecue sauce-like smell. But it didn't seem to smell like wood smoke or mesquite either.

From the package: “Thank you for buying our very special Sweet Mesquite Barbecue Potato Chips. To create our newest recipe, we blended unique all natural ingredients into a full-bodied barbeque flavor that complements our crunchy chips. Tomatoes, onions and a blend of natural spices are combined with mesquite wood smoke creating the perfect robust barbeque recipe. With each crunchy bite, you'll experience savory sweetness with just a hint of mesquite smoke.”
