The white-meat whisperer

Soft Coq is Rum and Que's go-to for the gentler proteins — a garlicky, thyme-laced rub that flatters chicken, pork and seafood without ever bullying them. It's the shaker you reach for when you want flavour with finesse, from a Kiwi crew who earned their stripes on the competition circuit.

The flavour

Roasted garlic up front, a green lift of thyme through the middle, and a clean, savoury-sweet finish. It seasons rather than dominates, letting good chicken and fish taste like themselves — only better.

How to cook with it

  • Rub it under and over the skin of a whole chicken and roast until the skin crackles and the garlic turns golden.
  • Dust chicken thighs or wings before a hot grill for a fast, herby midweek win.
  • Season pork chops or a loin an hour ahead so the thyme and garlic settle in.
  • Sprinkle over firm white fish or prawns just before they hit the pan — it loves seafood.
  • Toss it through hot chips or roast wedges for a garlicky side nobody expects.

In the shaker

A free-running, pale-gold rub flecked with green thyme and garlic. Fine enough to coat evenly, it clings to oiled skin and crisps beautifully rather than burning.

The Rub Smuggler's Verdict

Darryl Rubb, The Rub Smuggler

Don't let the name fool you — there's nothing soft about what this does to a chook. Season the bird, grill it over coals, then set it off with a swipe of Big Paulie Alabama White and a few drops of Fancy Hanks Cayenne & Watermelon for a fresh, fruity heat. Pat the skin dry before it goes on and you'll get proper crackle.

🏴‍☠️ Darryl's Secret: Garlic Thyme Crackle Chook

Gentle on flavour, ruthless on the skin.

You'll need: 1 whole chicken (about 1.6kg); 2 tbsp Soft Coq; 1 tbsp olive oil; 1 lemon, halved.

Do this:

  1. Pat the chicken bone dry, then rub Soft Coq under and over the skin and pop the lemon in the cavity.
  2. Rest it uncovered in the fridge for 2 hours to dry the skin further.
  3. Roast at 200°C for 60–75 minutes until the thickest part of the thigh reads 75°C.
  4. Rest 10 minutes before carving.

Why it works: Dry skin plus high heat equals crackle; the thyme and garlic toast golden on top.
