Low Carb BBQ Sauce??
I looked, tried several, and finally found a BBQ sauce I really like.
I've only tried the Original flavor, but Netrition has 4 different flavors -- think ill try the Smokey garlic next.

I order several things from Netrition - sugar free Torani & DaVinci syrups, Nectar protein powder, PB2, dry roasted edamame, Bella Vita low carb marinara sauce - so I keep a running wish list & place an order about every 6 weeks. Shipping is $5 regardless of how much you order so getting those heavy glass jars/bottles is really inexpensive. I live in the boonies so I find their shipping rates to be an excellent value.
The BBQ sauce is $3.50 but when I combine it with other items, the cost/shipping is really competitive.

Guy's is the only I've bought, I got the Spicy (it isn't).. but I tend to doctor stuff up.. the only thing I really miss with no sugar BBQ, you can't get that nice browning w/o a little sugar in some form.. Here's a low-carb recipe posted by friend of mine, I've done the diet coke one found online, and liked it-I will be trying this one next or a combo of both!
1/2 cup reduced-sugar ketchup (the Heinz reduced sugar ketchup has 1 gram sugar per T)
2 T tomato paste
4 T Splenda or Stevia in the Raw granulated
1-2 T brown sugar - Note: Depending on how sweet you want it, or use all Splenda or Stevia if you prefer; you can also use 1/3 cup Splenda-brown sugar blend, which will make the sauce a bit higher in sugar)
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup mustard (regular yellow mustard, not Dijon)
2 tsp. green Tabasco (or 1 tsp. red Tabasco)
1 1/2 T Worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp. Liquid Smoke optional but recommended)
Instructions:
Combine reduced sugar ketchup, tomato sauce, Splenda, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, mustard, green Tabasco, Worcestershire sauce, and Liquid Smoke in measuring cup or bowl and whisk together.
If you want to thicken it up, pour sauce into small saucepan and simmer at medium-low heat until reduced by 1/3, probably not longer than 10-15 minutes.
