The one jar to rule them all

Every backyard cook's got that one shaker that never leaves arm's reach. The Standard is Smokes' original savoury blend — the classic BBQ flavour you already know and love, built to make anything off the grill taste like you meant to do that. It's the workhorse, the everyday hero, the mate who turns up to every cook and never lets you down.

The flavour

Front is clean salt and gentle sweetness. The middle rolls in warm garlic and onion with a whisper of chipotle for backbone, and it finishes on a soft curl of natural smoke. Balanced, moreish and never shouty — this is seasoning, not a dare.

How to cook with it

Dust over snags, burgers and steaks straight before they hit the grill
Toss through wedges or roast spuds with a good glug of oil
Season a whole chook inside and out, then roast or rotisserie
Sprinkle on scrambled eggs, toasties and even a bloody Mary rim

In the jar

A fine-to-medium savoury blend, warm brown flecked with parsley and spice. Free-flowing, clings well to oiled meat, and smells like a Sunday cook the second you pop the lid.

Ingredients & Dietary

Ingredients: Spices, sugar, sea salt, salt, dehydrated garlic, dehydrated onion, caramel, citric acid, chipotle pepper powder, canola oil, natural smoke flavour, silicon dioxide, dehydrated parsley, antioxidant (ethoxyquin).

The Rub Smuggler's Verdict

If I could only smuggle one jar past the border, it'd be this one — The Standard just works on everything. Dust it on, grill it out, then finish with a squeeze of FANCY HANKS: BBQ Sauce Original and a dab of TRACKLEMENTS: Strong Horseradish Cream on the side. Grab the lot from the Smokes Seasoning collection. Trust your smuggler — every pantry needs a standard.

🏴‍☠️ Darryl's Secret: Weeknight Smash Burgers

The everyday hero gets a crispy edge.

You'll need: 500g beef mince; 1 tbsp The Standard; 4 cheese slices; 4 burger buns; Pickles and sliced onion.

Do this:

Roll the mince into 4 balls and heat a flat-top or cast-iron pan until smoking.
Smash each ball thin, season the top with The Standard and cook 2–3 minutes until crusty.
Flip, add cheese and cook another 1–2 minutes until 71°C inside.
Stack on toasted buns with pickles and onion.

Why it works: Seasoning straight after smashing helps the rub sear into the crust.

FAQ

How hot is The Standard?

There is no real heat in it. A whisper of chipotle gives it backbone, but this is seasoning, not a dare — safe for the whole table.

What can I use it on?

Genuinely everything. Snags, burgers, steaks, roast spuds, wedges, whole chook, scrambled eggs and toasties.

How is it different to the other Smokes rubs?

The others are specialists. This is the everyday workhorse — balanced, savoury, gently smoky, and it never fights whatever else is on the plate.

Is it gluten friendly?

Smokes describe their range as gluten friendly rather than certified gluten free, and it contains soy and may carry traces of gluten (wheat) and peanut. Check the physical label if you are cooking for an allergy.

Can I combine it with other rubs?

Yes — it is the natural base layer. Season with The Standard, then add a specialist rub like Brisket Black on top for beef.
