The rib rub with a blue ribbon to its name

Smokin' Hoggz BBQ is the competition team of pitmaster Bill Gillespie — 2011 Jack Daniel's World BBQ Champion and 2014 American Royal Invitational Champion, according to the team. Rib Rub is the blend they built for pork, and Smokin' Hoggz says it was named Best Overall Rub at the American Royal.

The flavour

Brown sugar and sugar lead for a sweet, caramelising bark. Salt, garlic and onion bring the savoury middle, and chilli and paprika add colour and a gentle warmth on the finish. Sweet, savoury and spicy — the brand's own words — in that order.

How to cook with it

  • Spare ribs or baby backs: a thin mustard binder, an even coat on both sides, then low and slow.
  • Pork shoulder: go heavy for a sticky, sweet bark on your pulled pork.
  • Chops and pork belly: dust before grilling, and keep them off the hottest part of the grill so the sugar doesn't scorch.

Ingredients & Dietary

Ingredients (as listed by the brand's US distributor): Brown sugar, sugar, salt, spices including chilli pepper, dehydrated garlic and onion, paprika, extractives of paprika (colour) and not more than 2% tricalcium phosphate added to prevent caking.

Dietary: Gluten free and no MSG, as listed by the brand's distributor. Always check the physical label for the most accurate ingredient, allergen and nutritional information.

The Rub Smuggler's Verdict

Darryl Rubb, The Rub Smuggler

It says rib on the label, so the Smuggler took it straight to a rack of pork spare ribs. Coat both sides, smoke at 120°C for about five hours until the bones wiggle, then brush on Four Saucemen The Rib Glaze for the last 30 minutes. Serve Rum and Que Mustard Sauce on the side for a tangy dip. The rack's gone before the bones cool.

🏴‍☠️ Darryl's Secret: Smoked Baby Back Ribs

Tender, glossy and worth the wait.

You'll need: 2 racks pork baby back ribs; 2 tbsp yellow mustard; 4 tbsp Smokin Hoggz Rib Rub; 125ml apple juice, for spritzing; 125ml BBQ sauce.

Do this:

  1. Peel the membrane off the back of the ribs, smear with mustard and coat with the rub. Rest 20 minutes.
  2. Smoke at 120°C for 4 to 4½ hours, spritzing with apple juice every hour after the first 2.
  3. Brush with sauce for the last 30 minutes. They're done when a rack bends and the bark cracks, about 93°C between the bones.
