CROIX VALLEY: Spicy Bloody Mary Rim Salt | Bloody Mary Rim Salt | 99g (3.5oz) shaker

Rim It Hot Or Don't Bother

The Croix Valley family didn't earn nine World BBQ Championship titles by playing it safe with heat, and that same approach carries through to this rim salt. Spicy Bloody Mary Rim Salt takes the classic seasoned salt blend from their Hudson, Wisconsin kitchen and works chilli through it, so the first thing you taste is warmth, not just salt.

The flavour

Front: coarse salt and a sharp chilli kick land together right away. Middle: savoury celery and garlic notes settle underneath, keeping the heat from feeling one-dimensional. Finish: a slow chilli burn that builds across a few sips rather than hitting all at once.

How to use it

• Wet the rim with lime juice and roll it through a plate of the salt for an even, spicy edge on every sip
• Use it to rim a margarita glass for a savoury-spicy twist on the usual plain salt rim
• Go light the first time — the chilli builds more than you'd expect from a rim salt
• Left-field use: dust it over corn on the cob or fresh mango for an instant sweet-heat snack

In the jar

A coarse pale salt blend streaked with visible flecks of dried red chilli and herbs — noticeably rustic and uneven in colour, exactly as a hand-mixed blend should look.

The Rub Smuggler's Verdict

If your Bloody Mary rim needs more than plain salt, this is the one — real chilli mixed right through, not just dusted on top for looks. Running a spicy brunch spread? Kosmos Q Honey Jalapeno BBQ Sauce over pulled pork sliders matches the heat in the glass. Go easy the first time; the burn creeps up more than you'd expect.
