Another vote for Plowboys, Oakridge and Sucklebusters. Haven't used Naturiffic yet but John is a great contributor to this site and hear nothing but great things about his products.

Another vote for Oakridge. Kosmos as well. When I’m looking for a nice mahogany color on my bark, I always finish with Killer Hogs. Their rub is deep red and creates a nice color. I like 3 Gringos and Harry Soo’s line-up as well.

Naturrific Q salt is probably my most used, all purpose seasoning. I would say I grill with it a lot more than I smoke, but I do also use it as a base for a more traditional BBQ rub quite often.Their harvest brine is great too. Just today I got some hot salt from them and can't wait to try it out. Lots of potential. I have not tried any of their other rubs yet.

Oakridge BBQ takes up the most space in my cabinets (and closet). In fact I have a tote dedicated to just Oakridge stuff. Smokey Chili Lime, Spogos, Dominator and Game Changer brine are probably my most used from them, but I have and use many others as well.

Plowboys Yardbird is a given. Other honorable mentions I toss in the mix are Killer Hogs, Meat Church, Sucklebusters, Simply Marvelous and Kosmos.

Sauces, I'm always trying new things and can't say I have a favorite go to sauce yet. Nothing has blown me away, but there are so damn many options I have not tried yet. It seems I use them less and less nowadays.

Always frustratingly popular compared to my weird rubs, it's a St. Louis BBQ chip

I have not heard about this Albukirky seasoning but am about to spend some money I shouldn't, for what that's worth.. LOL

DBBQ · 04-15-2021, 10:00 PM

Gary, I think Oakridge as well since Meatchurch is out. I have enjoyed Kosmos Q, Simply Marvelous, and cool smoke as well.

I totally agree. That is why I am trying to get a sense of popular rubs,, not just any rub.
Has anyone heard of 2 Gringos Chupacabra rub?

bingo1912 · 04-15-2021, 10:40 PM

John is sending me some samples. Can't wait to taste them! Looking at Kosmos and Oakridge as well
Thanks for all the replies. :)

very very straightforward bbq flavor, maybe a little on the montreal/pastrami end because i used a LOT of peppercorns

this was a weird one with szechuan peppercorns, 5-spice and a "thai green curry powder" thats very lemongrass forward, lavender herbs de provence

real cheap to buy bulk spices if you're remotely close to a bulk place. those chiles were from hispanic-town here( each bulk bag was $2-3, the cascabellas with the fancy labels were the pricey ones at $5/lb lol) and i get the most excited when im downtown and can stop by an asian market.
