Looking for a bold rub that brings deep, smoky complexity to your meats? Bearded Butcher Black is your go-to coffee dry rub, made for pitmasters who want robust flavour with serious attitude. This blend is built on a base of dark roast coffee and molasses, creating a rich and slightly sweet crust that enhances everything from grilled steak to slow-roasted ribs.
The secret behind this molasses BBQ rub is in the balance — a mix of cane and brown sugar, garlic, onion, paprika, and 100% pure instant coffee delivers intensity without overpowering your meat’s natural flavour. Use it as a steak seasoning to form that coveted bark on brisket, or as a flavour enhancer for venison, pork shoulder, or even grilled vegetables.
The coarse grind of this blend clings to the surface of meats, encouraging caramelization and helping you achieve that deep, flavour-packed sear. It’s ideal for smoking, grilling, or even baking — any method where you want bold depth of flavour and a perfect dark finish.
And like all Bearded Butcher blends, it’s gluten free and free from MSG or anti-caking agents. Whether you’re firing up the smoker or preparing a reverse-seared ribeye, this coffee dry rub delivers rich, roasty goodness in every bite.
