Product description

The tailgate is a competition, and West Coast BBQ Company's Tailgate Blend is your secret weapon. This isn't a casual rub; it's a professionally crafted, sweet-and-spicy powerhouse engineered for the high-energy demands of the Tailgaters BBQ Party Rub scene. It delivers maximum flavor, ensures a beautiful mahogany bark, and provides a thrilling 4/5 kick that guarantees you win the cookout.

With a perfect balance of deep, molasses-rich brown sugar and potent chili peppers, this blend is your versatile, all-in-one seasoning for every appetizer, main course, and side dish you bring to the stadium.


The Tailgate Advantage: Three Pillars of Party Perfection

This blend is meticulously designed for high performance and immediate results, setting you apart from the casual grillers.

1. Flavor & Fire (Heat Index 4/5)

The optimal balance of sweetness and savory depth is immediately followed by a powerful, satisfying heat. The 4/5 heat level comes from a specialized blend of spices, including Fiery Cayenne, delivering a thrilling kick that keeps guests energized without sacrificing the core BBQ flavor.


2. Blitz Application & Speed

Tailgating does not allow for hours of resting, which is obvious. This specific rub is designed to adhere instantly, delivering intense flavor with minimal prep time involved. It's built specifically for quick-cook items, things like wings, burgers, and brats, ensuring championship flavor right away.

3. The Ultimate Bark Builder

Now, unlike many sweet-spicy rubs that can scorch easily, our high-quality brown and white sugars are actually perfectly balanced with salt. This careful balance really helps promote deep caramelization and that sought-after mahogany bark on both pork and chicken during the cook, thereby ensuring professional results every time.
