Rubs, Marinades and Sauce selection are somewhat limited in my neck of the woods. Ill be in New Orleans later this month and Im looking to bulk up.

Where is best 1 stop shop?...Brand and flavor suggestions more than welcomed?

New Orleans School of Cooking at 524 St Louis st (in the Quarter just off Decatur next to NOLA) (and across the street from Johnny's PoBoys) has a good selection of seasonings, you may even want to take a demo cooking class if you have the time. Fun and very informative.
Crescent City Cooks in the Riverwalk Mall, also has a good selection.

If you are traveling by vehicle...
You will come close to
The BBQ Equipment Store in Hampstead Maryland.
1-888-977-4BBQ (4227)

For rub suggestions I would recommend Bad Byron's Butt Rub, 3Eyez, and Simply Marvelous. He does not carry the Simply Marvelous Products but if you contact him and pay in advance maybe he can make arrangements to bring some in for you as a courtesy for a fellow Brethren from another country who will be passing by??? You will have to call him and ask, but he is a pleasant guy.

These are MY personal suggestions, I used to use plowboys, but the last 2 5lb bags I ordered and used were extremely salty and unusable in it's current form. I have switched to Simply Marvelous and River City Razorback Spice.
 
They quit selling Spices in the markets in Canada?? Guess things have changed since I moved back to TX.:noidea: I used to buy the ingredients and make my own.... When life deals ya lemons.. make lemonaide.
 
Are you looking for local products? Or more popular competition type stuff?
 
You can get just about any rub or sauce mentioned on this board via the internet. Is shipping prohibitive?

Yes...:clap2:...all suggestion welcomed....

....Shipping isn't bad but depending on carrier, customs\brokerage fees can bite. Depending on what I find I will either mail to myself as birthday gift or check a bag on return flight...few day trips planned..

in canada use the great canadian bbq store
 
Try the french market on decator next to the cafe du-monde.
 
Alack Restaurant Supply in Hammond LA about an hour from New Orleans sells a good selection of popular competition rubs and sauces. Not exactly cheap, but its the only place around that I know of.

Since you wre gonna be here you might as well stock up on some cajun and creole seasonings as well as local hot sauces.

Be sure to stop at Cafe Du-Monde for their famous Beignet.....


Also if you buy sauce, remember you have restrictions on the amount of liquid you can pack in your luggage. On my last trip to Europe it was a limit of one ounce.

It was for for carry on.
We did bring wine back from France and Italy in our checked baggage.

Remember to use ziplock bags to protect your clothes in case the seals blow with the non pressurized cargo compartment.
