Does store bought barbecue sauce need to be heated/cooked before consumption? I have been thinking about buying barbecue sauce to use as a condiment (to use as a dipping sauce). A local store has many different brands, such as Jack Daniels and others.

Is it safe to consume this sort of pre-made barbecue sauces uncooked (similar to e.g. ketchup or mustard)?

(None of the bottles say that the sauce needs to be heated up before consumption but I thought that I better ask here.)
These products are generally made to be shelf stable and do not require heating.  Once opened, you should keep in the refrigerator.
