How to Choose the Right Canadian Gravy or Sauce
With so many options, start by thinking about how you will use them.
For Poutine
Select an option that is related to poutine, like St. Hubert Poutine Gravy Mix and Poutine Gravy from The Canada Foods.
You may use the gravy together with fries and cheese curds for a homemade poutine-inspired meal.
For Traditional Dinners
Bisto, Club House, or Knorr brown gravies may be a good option if you want something more versatile.
These options can make sense if you want something that fits into different home-cooked meals.
For BBQ Meals
Kraft, Diana, CattleBoyZ, Bull's-Eye, and Our Finest offer many varieties to choose from.
When preparing food to grill, multiple sauces can come in handy, letting you change the taste of your dish without changing its main ingredient.
For Restaurant-Inspired Meals
However, St. Hubert and Swiss Chalet brands come in handy whenever you wish to cook Canadian food restaurant-style in the comfort of your own home.
The items include poutine gravy, barbecue sauce, dipping sauce, and hot chicken sauces, among others.
How to Build a Useful Sauce Pantry
You don't need to buy every sauce on the market. Select products that go with the food that you cook.
If you like poutine, always have the poutine sauce and the cheese curds in your inventory. If you grill, try different sauces and select a few.
The goal is simple: choose products you are likely to use instead of filling your pantry with bottles that remain untouched.
Canadian Gravy and Sauces for Gatherings
Sauces can also be useful for creating fun gatherings in a casual setting. If you would like to plan a Canadian-style dinner party, then poutine is something that you could try first. Fries, cheese curds, and gravy are the staples here, along with various barbecue sauces.
Having several different sauces also helps your guests choose. Possible variations include BBQ sauce, a maple-based sauce, and steak sauce.
The Canada Foods offers many options in its Sauces & Mixes category.
How to Shop for Canadian Sauces Online
Consider your food needs before you shop. Look for poutine gravy and cheese curds for poutine, BBQ sauces for BBQ, and gravy mixes for traditional dishes.
Also, consider package size. The Canada Foods offers small packs, large bottles, and multi-pack options so you can choose what fits your needs.
Shopping from one grocery store in Canada will also help you include sauces with other Canadian pantry staples.
Where to Buy Canadian Gravy and Sauces Online in the USA
The Canada Foods website features the Sauces & Mixes category under the wider Pantry & Cooking categories. Currently, the following sauces are offered: poutine gravy, St. Hubert, Swiss Chalet, classic gravy mixes, BBQ sauce, steak sauce, and other cooking sauces.

Final Thoughts
Canadian gravy and sauces offer much more than just one brown gravy.
For poutine, The Canada Foods website offers St. Hubert Poutine Gravy Mix and Poutine Gravy separately. The site also offers St. Hubert and Swiss Chalet meals. Bistro, Club House, and Knorr have different gravy mixes for traditional dinners. Finally, if you prefer barbecue, you can choose from Kraft, Diana, CattleBoyZ, Bull's Eye, and Our Finest lines.
All you need to do is decide what you will be cooking. Consider what meals your family likes, then choose different sauces to create more variations.
