Collection: Man Rubs

What is a "Man Rub" in cooking?

It sounds like a hearty, bold spice rub that’s packed with strong flavours—that's perfect for grilling, smoking, or roasting meat. It's the kind of mix that says, 

"Let’s throw this on some ribs, light a bbq, and let the magic happen."

They may include subtlety is overrated).

A "manly" amount of paprika (because subtlety is overrated)

Brown sugar (for a touch of sweetness—don’t let anyone know you have a soft side).

A kick of cayenne (because tough guys like a challenge).

Garlic and onion powder (because they go in everything good).

Maybe a whisper of cinnamon (just to confuse people).

It's the spice rubs equivalent of chest hair and flannel.

Now grab some tongs, light that bbq, and let the rubbing begin
