Title: Dizzy pig
Post by: icebob on January 11, 2016, 02:45:55 PM

I'm a big fan of the Dizzy Pig line. Dizzy Dust being my go to. Swamp venom has some nice kick. For grilling, Raising the Steak and Cow lick are damned good.

I like the site, never tried the stuff, but could be on the list.

Store might be close enough for me to hit this summer.

I live about 15 min from the factory/store. They have amazing rubs. I use Raging river and the turkey Rub. There is a new one called Crossroads. all I can say is I love to eat it out of the jar. Enjoy the pig. I love running over to get some.

I like that they offer the sample packs. You can sample all 15 for $20.

I wish the ingredients list was a little more explicit on the spices list.  I've got a cupboard full of rubs that have "spices" that I don't particularly care for but don't know they are in the rub until I purchase it.

Same for me. I've mostly got rubs that people gave me, most of them I don't care for. One thing I don't want in my rub is "smoke flavoring" (it's fine for grilling or baking, not for smoking), and many rubs have that. I also don't care for a strong celery flavor in my rubs. I make almost all of my own rubs. Not only does it allow me to control the flavors for the specific cut of meat, I can control the heat, and also the salt. If I'm brining something, I don't really want salt in the rub. The only rub I use occasionally is Famous Dave's original, and that's only on ribs and sometimes unbrined butt.

I can tell you Crossroads is a great all around rub that you can use on alot of things. If I had the same pallat as you I would say let me know what you are looking at and I'll run over and try it for you. :D
