Texas jury finds barbeque restaurant liable for 189-degree hot sauce burns

  • A Texas jury found Bill Miller Bar-B-Q liable for serving 189-degree barbeque sauce that caused second-degree burns to Genesis Monita, who spilled it on her legs in May 2023.
  • The jury ordered Bill Miller Bar-B-Q to pay $2.8 million for Monita's pain and suffering, including $1.9 million in punitive damages.
  • Monita's attorney argued that the restaurant should have warned her about the sauce's temperature and used a safer container.
  • The case has drawn comparisons to the 1992 McDonald's coffee lawsuit, highlighting issues of corporate responsibility and customer safety.
