Southern Dutch A Pinch of Heat 275 g

What it is

Southern Dutch A Pinch of Heat is a well-balanced, savoury BBQ rub with a gentle kick, designed for beef and pork. Behind Southern Dutch BBQ are seasoned competition pitmasters Tom Raes and Dorine van Geffen, who have been competing on the KCBS circuit since 2013 and have taken home dozens of awards across Europe and the United States. A Pinch of Heat gives the meat a pleasant warmth, though the makers describe the heat as more of a modest nudge than an outright burn. This rub suits beef steaks, brisket, beef ribs, pork ribs, pork shoulder and pulled pork. It is a solid choice for grilling and low and slow smoking if heavily sweet BBQ rubs are not your thing. For a stronger sweet-and-spicy flavour profile, you can layer A Pinch of Heat with Southern Dutch A Touch of Sweet.

GRILLY comments

We would reach for A Pinch of Heat first on beef and pulled pork, where a little spicy character does nothing but good. This is not a rub that sets your mouth on fire with the first bite — it just adds a satisfying depth to the meat. If you like your ribs on the sweeter side, put a layer of A Touch of Sweet on top of this one.
