Everything But The Kitchen Sink – All-Purpose Dry Rub
They say the best inventions happen by accident—well, have I got a story for you.
While trying to develop a product around Pepperoni Chips (which, let’s just say, didn’t pan out), I found myself with a mountain of spices—Sea Salt, Smoked Paprika, Black Pepper, Chipotle Smoked Jalapeño Powder, Red Pepper Flakes, Aleppo Chili, Korean Chili Flakes, Fiery Harissa, and more. Staring at all these bold flavors, I thought, why not mix the ones that play well together?
Boom—Everything But The Kitchen Sink was born. Spicy, aromatic, and layered with complexity, this rub is pure magic on carne asada, squid, chicken wings, and pretty much anything that needs a kick. (Oh, and I tested it while working on Wide Right Buffalo Sauce—yeah, still trash-talking.)
Versatile Seasoning for Beef, Poultry, Pork & Seafood
This isn’t just another seasoning blend—it’s the ultimate fusion of bold flavors. Carefully balanced to enhance steaks, ribs, chicken, seafood, and even vegetables, this rub delivers smokiness, warmth, and just the right amount of heat without overpowering your food.
What Makes It Special?
✅ Perfect Balance – A sweet, smoky, savory blend with just enough heat.
✅ Versatile for Any Protein – Elevates beef, poultry, pork, seafood, and even roasted veggies.
✅ Rich Depth & Complexity – Layers of flavor from smoked paprika, chipotle, Aleppo chili, black pepper, and warm spices.
