Heat: Medium — mellow, smoky ancho warmth
Size: 300g
Origin: Made in New Zealand
Dietary: Ingredients listed below; allergens to be confirmed from the physical label
Best on: Chicken, pork, seafood and — the winner — tacos
Some rubs shout; this one charms. Bright Hawkes Bay lime meets mellow, smoky ancho chilli for a rub that lands squarely in the friendly zone — enough warmth to keep things interesting, enough zest to keep them lively. Tacos have found their new best mate.
Zesty lime up front, then a soft, smoky ancho warmth that builds slowly and never tips into fire. Savoury and citrusy underneath — rounded, moreish and genuinely easy to like.
A rust-red, flecked blend with a citrus-and-smoke aroma; medium grind that clings to grilled and seared foods.
Ingredients (from the label): Sea salt, brown sugar, sugar, spices, dehydrated vegetable protein, food acids (330, 262), anti-caking agent (551), Hawke's Bay lime powder, vegetable oil, lime extract, spice extract, herb extract, flavour. Recipes can change — always check the physical label.
Dietary: Dietary claims and allergens to be confirmed — always check the physical label.

Lime up front, then a slow, smoky ancho warmth that never tips into fire — the friendly end of the chilli scale. Rub chicken thighs or pork, char them up, and load the tacos with Boomas Boomtang BBQ Sauce and a splash of Danny Balboas Fight Sauce.
