• xenforo has sucessfully updated our forum software last night. Howevr, that has returned many templates to stock formats which MAY be missing some previous functionality. It has also fixed some boroken templates Ive taken offline. Reat assured, we are working on getting our templates back to normal, but will take a few days. Im working top down, so best bet is to stick with the default templates as I work thru them.

Been interested in trying them out, question is how much heat is in there rubs. Thanks for any info.
 
I have only used the Dominator sweet rub and the Black Opps and both are mild but have a lot of flavor but they do have some that you can put a layer of heat on I am sure . the guy that owns Oakridge just lives 10 minutes away from me and once I tried it I have been hooked with the freshness and flavor it adds .
 
Only heat in those that mention heat.

Top quality ingredients and flavors in everything I've had.

Curious? Get the VIP Sampler. It's enough to mess-about with some different stuff... but you'll be back.

Heck, I have some large bags of their rubs, and I still buy a sampler pack now and again.
It's that good.

Experiment. Explore. Enjoy.
 
Thanks for the info, sounds like they are a top quality rub. Think I will pick some up and give it a try.
 
Agree, get a sampler pack. Each is enough for at least one decent size cook. Those that have heat are labeled as such -- and in some cases, have a lot of heat (Crucible for instance)

That said, love the Habanero Death Dust.
 
Hab death dust, Crucible and Scorpion are the only ones packing heat IMO.


However if you are VERY sensitive to any heat like my wife, she has informed me that comp beef and pork has a little heat. Please understand that this woman will not let me put black pepper on her eggs in the morning as it is too hot.:wacko:
 
Hab death dust, Crucible and Scorpion are the only ones packing heat IMO.
And the Jerk rub as well. Don't recall if I've tried the Oakridge chicken rub, but I've noticed that most rubs that are labeled as chicken rubs, usually pack some heat. Oakridge Santa Maria you'll like. Great rub, good on lots of things.
 
I have the habenaro and the crucible. They both have heat, but the crucible has great flavor. I put it on pork belly and it was good and it is crazy good on pig candy.
 
Oakridge is as affordable as any rub at the market but of the highest quality. Haven't had the hot rubs yet. The ones i have had are also low in salt which i dont mind as salt is cheap and if i want more ill add it
 
I just finished my last sampler packet yesterday. I'll be going back later for sure. Hab death dust is so darn good, but like other guys the wife and daughters say it's too hot. (It's perfect for me and my boy so just more for us)
 
Go for the sampler package... You can't go wrong.

The majority are very mild like Competition Beef and Pork, Secret Weapon Chicken and Pork. The Santa Maria has a little black pepper in it, but very mild in nature, I love it on grilled vegetables as well. The Game Bird and Chicken has a slight hint or red pepper but it is not hot. Black-Ops Brisket Rub has an ample amount of black pepper because it's for brisket.

They has several hot rubs, but they are marked accordingly...

I started with the sampler pack and went from there.

Oakridge rubs are excellent.
 
We get a little crazy: I like my Carne Crosta cut 50/50 with Santa Maria. I'm just that kind of guy. It's farkin' good.

Yep. 50/50 here as well. Makes one helluva burger on the blackstone as well.







Also, apologies to the folks for having a brainfart and totally forgetting Jah Love rub.:doh::doh:
