Perfected by the Bush Camp. Built for the Wild.
Dark Side Of The Grill Big Buck Wild Game Rub is a carefully crafted blend of herbs and spices designed to bring out and preserve the incredible flavours of wild game. Inspired by countless bush camp cooks across the great Canadian outdoors, this rub is built to complement — not mask — the natural character of venison, elk, moose, duck, goose, and any other wild protein that makes its way from the field to your grill.
What makes it special:
Wild game has bold, distinctive flavours that most standard BBQ rubs aren't designed to handle. Some rubs overpower the meat; others don't do enough. Big Buck Rub is formulated specifically for wild game — the herb and spice blend enhances the natural richness of the meat while helping manage the stronger, gamier notes that can turn off less experienced game eaters. The result is wild game that tastes like wild game at its absolute best.
Great for:
-
Venison: Steaks, roasts, ground meat — this rub was made for deer
-
Elk and moose: The robust herb blend stands up to big, bold game meat
-
Duck and goose: Fowl benefits hugely from the right seasoning
-
Lamb and goat: Works beautifully on domestic proteins with a gamier profile
-
Beef and pork: A well-rounded rub that crosses over nicely to domestic meats too
Key features:
-
Purpose-built for wild game: Enhances natural flavours without overpowering
-
Herb-forward blend: Complements the richness of game meat
-
Versatile: Works on fowl, venison, lamb, goat, beef, and pork

Pro tips:
- Apply generously and let it sit for at least 30 minutes before cooking — the herbs need time to work their magic
- For venison steaks, season and sear hot and fast — wild game is lean and overcooking is the enemy
- This rub also makes an incredible seasoning for wild game sausages and burger blends
- Stay Wild, my friends — and season accordingly
