CAROLINA SMOKE: Chicken & Pork Seasoning - 250g

Carolina heat for chook and pig

The seasoning Nick built for the two meats that made Carolina Smoke famous. Bold, zesty and with a little wild side — this is the spicy love song your wings and ribs have been waiting for, straight from a Fayetteville pitmaster now firing up Sydney.

The flavour

Savoury salt and a whisper of sugar up front, black pepper and a genuine chilli warmth through the middle, and a moreish, umami-rich finish that clings to skin and crackling alike. Zesty, punchy, a touch wild — never shy.

How to cook with it

• Chicken wings, thighs and whole roast birds
• Pork ribs, pork belly and pulled pork
• Chicken and pork skewers over the coals
• Tacos, burritos and fajitas; roast veg for the herbivores

In the shaker

A savoury, chilli-flecked blend with an even, free-flowing grind that shakes on clean and colours beautifully as the fat renders. 250g of everyday firepower.

The Rub Smuggler's Verdict

A Carolina boy who knows his chook from his pig — I respect a specialist. Dust wings and pork belly, let the chilli do its quiet work, then branch out: the same crew's Everything Seasoning covers the rest of the plate. Building a chicken empire? Smuggle in Tennessee's Jack Daniel's Chicken Rub and Arizona's championship Gold Star Chicken Rub for a three-way poultry heist. Full Carolina Smoke stash here.
