Drunken Sailor Tomato Sauce - 400ml - Vegan

Rich. Tangy. Gently smoky — and officially a Gold medal winner.

This isn’t your everyday tomato sauce. Made with 59% ripe Australian tomatoes, onion, molasses, mustard seeds and spices, it delivers a rich tomato flavour with a satisfying tang and a gentle smoky finish.

Based on Drunken Sailor’s award-winning Smokey Tomato Relish, this squeeze-bottle version was awarded Gold at the 2026 Sydney Royal Fine Food Show — so while it may be brilliant on chips, it has earned its place well beyond the takeaway table.

Why it earns a spot in the Underground Chef pantry

Because a good tomato sauce should add flavour, not simply sweetness. This one has the depth and tang to lift everything from a simple sausage or burger to homemade pies, meatloaf and barbecue favourites.

It’s familiar enough for the whole family, but with noticeably more character than an ordinary supermarket sauce.

Chef Ian’s best ways to use it

• Pies and sausage rolls: serve alongside or add a spoonful to the filling
• Burgers: spread directly onto the bun or mix with mayonnaise for a smoky burger sauce
• Scrambled or Poached Egg: A popular breakfast staple
• Sausages: ideal with caramelised onions and a crusty roll
• Chips and wedges: the obvious choice — and a very good one
• Meatloaf: brush over the top before baking for a rich, glossy finish
• Bacon and egg rolls: add a generous squeeze for an easy breakfast upgrade
• Barbecue meats: serve with steak, chicken, pork or anything hot off the barbie
• Homemade barbecue sauce: use as a flavourful base and add Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, honey or chilli
• Toasties: pair with ham, cheese or leftover roast meat

Chef’s tip

Mix it with mayonnaise for a quick burger or dipping sauce. Start with two parts mayonnaise to one part tomato sauce, then add more sauce to taste. For extra heat, stir through a little Smokey Chipotle Honey.
