Commitment to Quality - Clean Label BBQ Products

Our Commitment to Quality

We are passionate about barbecue, what goes into our products, and how they are manufactured. Clean Label means you won't find anything in our products that you cannot readily identify. We verify all ingredients through rigorous testing and supplier audits to ensure safety and transparency, so you can feel confident about what you're consuming. There is nothing hidden or masked by obscure names or scientific E numbers, just honest, simple ingredients.

We are committed to sourcing the best quality ingredients from around the world. We openly share our sourcing practices and supplier information to ensure transparency, helping you trust that our ingredients are ethically and sustainably sourced. To maintain freshness, we buy and produce in small batches and have strict specifications for all our products, ensuring the highest quality standards are met. We use Real Italian Tomatoes in our passata, which gives a better flavour than tomato paste bought in bulk from China and mixed with water.

We source all our ingredients.

Manufacture all our products and package everything ourselves to ensure we have an unbroken production chain from start to finish. To say with 100% confidence that our products are gluten-free, Dairy-Free, and free from anything that Google or Wikipedia needs to explain.

In 2020, we joined the Safe and Local Supplier Association and successfully passed our first comprehensive audit, which verifies our adherence to strict safety and quality standards. This certification demonstrates our commitment to sourcing and manufacturing practices that meet industry benchmarks, giving you confidence in our products' safety and integrity.

Amazing ribs and such a good price as well.

Amazing quality products and fast service. It turned up as frozen as it left so I really can't complain.

Great Rub 10/10

If you’ve spent any time watching BBQ videos on YouTube, you’ve likely seen Malcom Reed work his magic with this rub. After using it on everything from spare ribs to spatchcock chicken, I can safely say the hype is real. It’s a "competition-style" rub that manages to be accessible enough for a Tuesday night dinner.

Flavor Profile

The standout feature of this rub is its perfect balance. It leads with a sweet, molasses-like depth from the brown sugar, followed quickly by a savory punch of garlic, onion, and a hint of orange peel that adds a subtle brightness. There is a "kiss" of heat at the very end from the chili pepper, but it’s definitely not a "hot" rub—it’s just enough to keep the sweetness from being cloying.

Performance & Appearance

This is where Killer Hogs truly wins. If you want that deep mahogany, "candy-coated" look on your ribs or pork butt, this is the bottle to grab. The sugar and paprika blend caramelizes beautifully, creating a professional-grade bark that looks like it came off a trophy-winning smoker.

Versatility

While it’s marketed heavily for pork and poultry, it’s surprisingly versatile:

- Pork: It’s a 10/10 for ribs and pulled pork.

- Chicken: Gives thighs and wings a great color and savory-sweet skin.

- Sides: I’ve actually started shaking a little on my baked beans and even over roasted sweet potatoes—it adds a nice "BBQ soul" to just about anything.

The Verdict

The only potential downside is for those who prefer a very salt-forward, Texas-style profile (lots of black pepper and salt). This is a sweeter, more "Memphis-style" blend. However, for a general-purpose rub that guarantees your meat will look and taste like you know exactly what you’re doing, you can’t beat it.

Pros:

- Incredible mahogany color/bark.

- Balanced sweet-to-heat ratio.

- Low enough salt content that you can apply it generously without over-salting.

Cons:

- Contains MSG (a pro for flavor, but a con for some dietary preferences).

- Might be too sweet for those who only like savory/peppery rubs.

Final Thought: If you want to turn out BBQ that looks like a professional pitmaster made it, this should be a staple in your pantry.
