Haven’t had the chance to compete in a while, but in the meantime we still cooking at home. This weekend we did burgers (both beef and pork) using the new Heath Riles BBQ Burger Rub. I had a taste right out of the bottle, and knew immediately this one is a hit. We had the idea to do huevos rancheros flavor profile. This was a flavor bomb!

New 🔥🔥🔥

This pepper-forward seasoning for burgers builds a bold, savory crust on everything from beef and smash burgers to meatloaf, locking in juicy flavor on every bite.
