How to use it
- Massage into brisket, steak, or portobello mushrooms before grilling. It forms a rich, caramelized crust.
- Dust roasted nuts or bacon for a surprising smoky-sweet edge.
- Stir into brown sugar and sea salt for a signature rim on bourbon cocktails.
- Add a pinch to chili, barbecue sauce, or roasted root vegetables to deepen flavor.
- Try it over buttered toast or popcorn (seriously) for a dark, roasted finish.
Dark roast, cracked pepper, real crust. Black & Bold is the rub for people who want the grill to talk back. Press it in, bring the heat, and let the bark speak for itself.
