Franklin BBQ Salt and Pepper Spice Rub is a classic Texas BBQ rub with a coarsely peppery and cleanly salty flavour.

Use it before grilling or low and slow smoking, either on its own or as a base layer under another BBQ rub.

What it is

Franklin BBQ Salt and Pepper Rub is a true cornerstone of Texas BBQ — a simple, honest and clean rub created by BBQ legend Aaron Franklin himself. This is not just “salt and pepper”; it is a perfectly balanced combination that brings out the natural flavour of beef exactly the way Texas tradition demands.

This rub is salt-forward and heavily centred on black pepper, precisely as Texas BBQ tradition dictates. Coarsely ground black pepper builds a rich bark on the surface of the meat and delivers an intense yet not overpowering kick. Sea salt highlights the meat’s natural flavour and creates a perfect balance.

Unlike more complex rubs, this one contains no sweetness and no strong herbal notes — clean flavours that let the meat do the talking.

This is a rub that can replace half the spice rack at home — it works on everything, but truly shines on beef: brisket, ribeye, short ribs, flank steak and burgers. Simple, clear and in exactly the right proportions — precisely what a proper Texas BBQ rub should be.

GRILLY comments

It really is that kind of everyday, go-to rub. Franklin BBQ Salt and Pepper Rub makes everything taste better — even a pizza sauce improved with it. Clean, honest and versatile, it lets the flavour of the meat shine without any overthinking.
