It's made for pulled pork, ribs, pork belly, and sausages – but also amazing on pork chops and even bacon-wrapped anything. It brings out the natural sweetness of pork with a smoky kick.
Does this rub contain sugar?
Yes – it includes a carefully balanced amount of brown sugar to help caramelise and develop a classic BBQ bark. Great for low-and-slow smoking or oven roasting.
Can I use this rub on the grill or in a pan?
Definitely. Just keep an eye on the heat if cooking direct over flames, as the sugar can char. It’s ideal for indirect grilling, smoking, oven roasting, or air frying.
Does it work with other meats?
Absolutely. It’s great on chicken, turkey legs, and even salmon if you want that sweet BBQ profile.
Can I pair it with any sauces?
Yes – it pairs beautifully with BBQ sauces like honey chipotle, Carolina mustard, or classic hickory glaze. Apply the sauce near the end to avoid burning.
What makes Smokey so special
Real hickory salt for authentic BBQ flavour
We use hickory salt — not artificial smoke flavourings — to deliver that deep, savoury BBQ character. It gives your pork cooks that unmistakable smoky edge, without overpowering the meat.
Balanced sweet, smoky and savoury profile
Crafted with demerara sugar, smoked paprika and garlic, Hickory Hog hits the sweet-spot between richness and spice. Whether you're cooking ribs, pork belly or pulled shoulder, it delivers a full-flavour finish with a gentle kick.
Designed to build beautiful bark on ribs and pork
This rub creates an irresistible caramelised crust thanks to its carefully balanced sugar and spice blend. Whether you're smoking or roasting, expect a glossy, flavour-packed bark that seals in moisture and turns heads.
Blended in small runs for peak freshness
Every batch is made by hand in small volumes to preserve freshness, flavour and colour. It means you get a rub that’s bold, bright and ready to perform the moment it hits your meat.

Frequently asked questions
What’s the shelf life of your seasonings?
Unopened cans stay fresh for up to 2 years thanks to our sealed aluminium packaging. Once opened, keep the lid on and store in a cool, dry place for long-lasting flavour.
Are your rubs gluten-free and vegan?
Most of our rubs are gluten-free, dairy-free, and vegan-friendly, with no silica dioxide (sand!) or artificial additives. Check the product page or ingredients list to confirm.
Where are Smokey Rebel seasonings made?
All our blends are handcrafted in the UK using high-quality ingredients inspired by bold global flavours – with a heavy BBQ influence.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes! We offer worldwide shipping – costs and delivery times will vary depending on location and order size. UK orders typically arrive within 2–4 working days.
Can I use Smokey Rebel rubs without a BBQ or smoker?
Absolutely. Our blends are just as good in the oven, air fryer, or pan as they are over charcoal or wood. Ideal for everyday cooking, not just BBQ season.
Do your rubs contain sugar?
Some blends (like Hickory Hog and Cherry Force) contain a small amount of sugar to help with caramelisation and bark development. Others (like Revolution and Spitfire) are sugar-free and great for high-heat or keto-friendly cooking.
Do you offer gift sets or sampler packs?
Yes! We have a range of gift boxes and mini can bundles, perfect for BBQ lovers or seasoning addicts. These come packaged with extras like stickers, sweets, and a handwritten thank-you card.
Are your seasonings suitable for kids?
Many of our blends are family-friendly, with mild heat and well-balanced flavour. Spicier options like Spitfire or Holy Jalapeño are clearly marked.
