FAQs
About The Rubs
What makes us different from any other barbecue rubs out there?
Well first, our rubs are comprised of only 100% organic ingredients. We started this company because we found we were buying high quality meats and then putting rubs and spices that were full of additives and anti-caking agents on our food almost defeating the purpose. We knew we could do better. More importantly, our hope is that our rubs help and inspire you to connect with other people and community. What is life if you’re not spending it around the table with good food and good people? Food brings people together and we hope that this helps equip people to better connect and enjoy the lost art of hospitality.
What is the shelf life of your barbecue rubs, and do they need to be refrigerated?
The shelf life is 2 years and does not require refrigeration. It is best to store in a cool dry place to avoid caking.
How do I use the barbecue rubs?
It may sound daunting to try out something new, we get it! Cooking is an art, what's right for one is not right for all. You have to do what tastes good to you. If you're new, the first thing to try, just toss a tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil and some bbq rub on a chicken breast or some veggies and roast in the oven! Our barbecue rubs are amazing on beef, poultry, fish, pork, eggs, and vegetables. Those are just a few of our daily uses...but we have more fun recipes on our blog to help you get started! Our hope is to foster a community of ideas, creativity, and help either support your passion for barbecue or give you simple tools to help you learn how to cook better -- no matter where you are in your cooking journey, you truly can’t go wrong!
Where are the products made?
We make all of our products in a certified commercial wholesale kitchen. We adhere to strict sanitary guidelines, and take great care with every single bottle that leaves our facility.
Where can I buy the barbecue rubs?
Well, that's easy! You can purchase directly from our store by navigating to the Shop Page.
About the Nutrition
Is it organic?
Backyard Rubs is a midwest made, Texas- inspired barbecue rub with flavor comprised of only 100% organic ingredients. Making it the best meat or veggies you have ever smoked or tasted.
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 and anti-caking. We are on a mission to change that. We want you to feel good about the ingredients you put into your body! Our hope is to 100% support sustainable clean practices while providing you with quality ingredients.
Are your products gluten-free, keto, and vegan?
Yes! And even better, we are made here in the USA!
