Testimonials
My husband and I have always enjoyed exploring different and unique flavors in the kitchen. We thought we’d tasted it all when it came to spices! Then we were given samples of the Daddy Crack and Spicy Mama and they knocked our socks off! These spices are where sweet perfectly meets salt. Add a little zing with the Spicy Mama and you’re in “heat heaven.” The versatility and uses of the spices are endless! From meats to vegetables to the rims of cocktails, this stuff is the next must-have, never-let-yourself-run-out-of-it, essential seasoning every kitchen needs!

We put Daddy Crack on chicken to start and it is now the only rub we use on chicken, love the fact it is organic too. Spicy Mama was awesome on burgers and everyone loved the new burger flavor! Keep them coming Backyard Rubs!

Backyard Rubs has quickly become THE staple brand of seasonings/rubs in our home. Daddy Crack is so versatile that I’ve been using it on everything from breakfast casseroles, to sandwich wraps, to salmon and even pizza! Spicy Mama has replaced our decade old go-to rub/seasoning for our chicken wings, ribs, and ground beef! I feel good adding these products to my family’s food, as they use organic ingredients!

01. We use only quality organic ingredients.
02. We encourage community.
03. We strive for sustainability in all of our products.

BR in the smoker is a way to take better care of the people you care most about.
Too often we forget to look at the ingredients in some of our most loved grilling partners. And when we do, we are disappointed to find the stack of unnecessary ingredients added only to increase shelf life.
We are on a mission to change that.
