  1. BBQ Rub Seasoning: The Fierce Bull Coffee Rub isn't your average BBQ spice rub. This blend, with ground coffee beans from Gesha Coffee Co., promises to elevate your lamb dishes to new heights. It creates a dark coffee crust after grilling, locking in flavours and adding a visually appealing finish.
  2. BBQ Spices: Smokey Q's Fierce Bull Coffee Rub is a testament to the versatility of BBQ spices. It's not just for beef and chicken - it works wonders on lamb too!

SEAFOOD

Diving into the depths of flavour, our journey brings us to seafood, a culinary category that is beautifully enhanced by Smokey Q's Zesty Sea Salt Blend. This unique blend, meticulously crafted from native Australian lemon myrtle, chilli, garlic, pepper, sea salt, and lemon zest, has an impressive capacity to transform seafood dishes into gourmet experiences.

TOMAHAWK

From pork ribs, let's now turn our attention to another BBQ Favorite - the Tomahawk. This impressive cut of beef requires a special touch, and the right BBQ rub can elevate its flavour to new heights.

Our Original Beef BBQ Rub is an excellent choice for this cut. It's crafted with a unique blend of ingredients, giving it a rich and deep flavour profile that truly complements the meat. This rub is less sweet than traditional BBQ sauces, allowing the natural flavours of the beef to shine through.

When it comes to cooking the Tomahawk, offset with lump charcoal is the way to go with a reverse sear at the end. This method allows the meat to absorb all the flavours of the rub and results in a tender, succulent beef that's a delight to eat. Before you start cooking, be generous with the rub and let the beef sit for at least 30 minutes. This will ensure that every bite is packed with flavour.

PULLED PORK

Let's pull the lid off another Smokey Q Favorite - the Pulled Pork, which takes on a whole new level of deliciousness when seasoned with our Sweet Hog Honey & Bacon Rub. This BBQ rub infuses the meat with a divine sweetness, balanced by a smokey bacon flavour that'll have your taste buds dancing.

  1. Ingredients: This bacon rub is made with real, natural ingredients, including honey powder and natural bacon flavour. It's gluten-free, making it suitable for all food lovers.
  2. Usage: Ideal for pork ribs, it's not just a meat seasoning. Try it on roast potatoes or even popcorn - it's that versatile!
  3. Instructions: Simply sprinkle generously on your meat, let it absorb the flavours for about 30 minutes, then grill to perfection. Watch as it develops a beautiful golden glaze.
  4. Why Choose: This Australian-made rub is MSG-free and has no fillers - just pure, mouthwatering flavour.

Once you pulled the pork consider pairing your Bull’s head BBQ sauce! Derived from tamarind and with a hint of vinegar, with perfectly balanced sweet and tangy notes we’ve created a rich flavour that we are proud to call our own.

PASTA

Moving on from our flavourful pulled pork rub, we can't ignore the magic a pinch of our Truffle Salt brings to a classic pasta dish. This luxurious ingredient provides a flavour enhancement that takes your pasta from ordinary to gourmet. It's not just about adding saltiness, it's about introducing a unique, earthy taste that brings out the best in your food.

Our Truffle Salt is a versatile addition to your pantry, just as suitable for steaks, potatoes, and fries as it is for pasta. It's made with local WA truffles and Australian sea salt flakes, ensuring you get a product of the highest quality.

Imagine a steaming plate of spaghetti, laced with a silky sauce, and finished with a sprinkle of our Truffle Salt. The salt reacts with the heat, releasing its intoxicating aroma and infusing the pasta with its rich flavour. This gourmet touch doesn't require any culinary expertise, just a love for good food.

We believe that every dish deserves to taste its best, and with our Truffle Salt, you have a simple, yet powerful tool to enhance your meals, making every bite an experience to savour.

PORK BELLY

Ever wondered how to get that perfect, crispy pork belly with a rich, smokey flavour? Well, we have some mouthwatering tips for you, using a meat dry rub that's a game-changer.
