The secret handshake for white meat
Pork Hunt is Stef the Maori's answer to the eternal question: how do I take ribs and wings from "nice" to "OMG when's dinner ready?" Another full-flavoured tastebud puncher out of the Far North of Aotearoa, aimed squarely at pork and chicken but happy to slap itself on anything. Grab the shaker and hunt that pork.
The flavour
Front-loaded with sweetness — coconut sugar and cane sugar give a caramelising, sticky edge. The middle brings warm paprika, cumin and coriander with garlic and onion, then a gentle chilli tingle and a lick of smoke powder round it out. Sweet, smoky, savoury, just a little heat.
How to cook with it
- Coat pork ribs and rest overnight, then smoke low and slow until they bend
- Shake generously over chicken wings and grill hot for a sticky, caramelised finish
- Rub pork belly before a slow roast so the sugars build a lacquered bark
- Season chicken thighs and skewers for the barbie
In the shaker
A darker, sweeter-looking blend — the coconut sugar and paprika lend a warm reddish-brown tone with visible spice speckle. Coarse enough to build a proper bark.
