Mediterranean

Mediterranean seasoning is built on herbs and garlic, not chilli — oregano, rosemary, thyme and sumac sitting over garlic and lemon rather than heat, the same base that runs through Greek, Italian and Turkish grilling from the souvlaki cart to the family Sunday roast. It's built for lamb, chicken and seafood off the grill or rotisserie, plus roast vegetables and flatbreads where you want herby depth rather than a spice hit — think souvlaki, gyros, a Tuscan-style roast or a simple grilled fish.

This is a genuinely tight, curated range of five — start with Taipan BBQ's Mediterranean Magic for an easy all-rounder, Butchers Axe's Gyros Rotisserie Seasoning Rub if you're doing the rotisserie properly, Street BBQ's Tuscan Alle Brace Rub for a more Italian lean, or Coast N Smoke's The 13th Apostle for a sumac-forward, no-heat gyros seasoning off Victoria's Surf Coast.

Every one of them is a herb-forward, mild-heat rub rather than a chilli blend, and most are Australian made — Butchers Axe and Coast N Smoke both out of Melbourne and Victoria's Surf Coast — so it's genuine Mediterranean flavour built locally rather than imported and relabelled. Herbs, garlic and a squeeze of lemon, done properly.
