Pitfaced BBQ - Meat Massage, Spicy Meat Massage, and On Point - Standing 10% off for TW!

I'd gladly pay shipping... and cover costs...

 

"IN"

 

I'm in for a quarter bag......

 

Indeed it is!

 

I'll confirm this for you. It's true. When I went to send my friend some uh stuff, the lady asked me if it was under X-weight (13oz sounds right) as it was cheaper. I bought the prepaid flat rate stamp or whatever.

Will pay for shipping too. I want me some spicy rub!

 

I was a busy boy tonight.





More photos to come tomorrow and Saturday when I finish the 20 hour smok-a-thon.

 

Wrap a medium sized shrimp and a chunk of jalapeno with a thin piece of bacon, cover it in this rub, skewer and bake them suspended by the skewer across a glass baking dish....Ask me how I know...

 

Still haven't gotten my OG batch but I'm always in for spicy. It take a lot to qualify as spicy in my book. Growing up on heavy authentic Mexican food spicy is a relative term. I make my guac and salsa with habaneros and eat jalapeños like carrots and celery so bring on the heat.

 

Those prepped ribs are a sight I've seen countless times! Looking forward to your results.

A 20 hour smoke-a-thon?!?!? I like the cut of your jib.

I think we ALL want to know what makes you such an expert on this stuff.

I'm kind of like you. Habs are spicy tomatoes and jalapenos are smokey parsley. I think this spicy batch will have a good balance between being hot enough to catch the attention of pepper heads like us without being so hot that eating BBQ starts to feel like a hot wings challenge. Not super hot, but it will definitely have some heat.

 

Yes. 2 briskets overnight and then your ribs in the morning for lunch.

 

Time for another episode today. We'll go with the red theme since a small spicy batch is getting included:

 

Ribs about to go on with the rub. Should be done around 3.

 

2 briskets down



Onto the ribs with @bvbull200 's rub

 

Loving the color so far!

 

Just pulled a couple ribeyes off the grill rubbed down with Pitfaced rub! Tasty for sure! I'm in for some rub with extra heat!

Tomorrow I'm smoking two racks of baby back ribs and a pork butt.

 

Ribs are done.





Everyone loved them. Didn't use any sauce. I was asked if I sauced them during the smoke, but didn't. They're eager about the spicy version.

I may have to get back in queue to get more. I'm about to see how this does with some sous vide cooking.

 

Love the look of those ribs and appreciate the positive feedback! That smoke ring on the ribs is pretty awesome. Don't mind if I use any pics, do you?

About that spicy version...

 

Good news, bad news, great news situation.

Good news - We cranked out 50 pounds of rub tonight! I still have to get all of the shipping labels and info in order and such, so give me a couple/few days to get that sorted out. Regardless, this round of shipments isn't due until the 26th, so we'll still be PLENTY ahead of schedule.

Bad news - Okay, it isn't that bad of news. It's actually a circumstance of the good news. This has been MASSIVELY successful for a couple of guys like us. Can't thank you all enough. The group buy will be capped at however many pounds we have left from the batch we just made after fulfilling current orders. I'll have to go back and do the math, but it is probably in the neighborhood of 20-25 more pounds that we can support orders for with this group buy. Once figured out, I will update the OP. It is purely a function of time and organization. On the time front, I'm out of it for the next few weeks. I'm back in school and have a lot to tend to there before my next break. On the organization front, we're starting to figure out how to keep our supplies list stocked and even with one another so that we don't have 4 batches of 1 ingredient while we're out of another. We need to get that down and put our bulk orders in. The stuff isn't going away and you all can PM me at ANY time to re-up. I'll quote you a lead time then. We will meet (or beat!) all promised deadlines of the group buy, it is only everything beyond that where I will give a lead time. This just gives us a chance to catch our breath!

Great news - We settled on a spicy blend that we're happy with and will start reaching out to testers. I don't know, yet, how many testers we can reach. We'll be asking for help covering costs, so we want to be sure enough is included that it is worth your money. We're absorbing some of the cost. You are welcome to quote this and post up if you'd like to try it. I will be going back to find those that volunteered first, so keep in mind that they have priority! If we have 11 volunteers and only 10 samples, #11, I'm sorry you were missed, but we'll keep you in mind when we can hook you up with something . I'll post the details in a separate post later. I won't say anything that might shape expectations on the spicy version other than I'm very happy that we have preserved the flavor profile of the original rub. In my opinion, this stuff is very faithful to the original.

Good night! Thanks again for the support and looking forward to watching more of you rub your meat!

 

I'm in for another 2 pounds of the original and would still be in to test the spicy. If the tester list is long enough to include me, I'll cover whatever costs needed and maybe we can just combine everything into one shipment to save on that cost.

Congratulations on the success...I'll always keep some of your rub in the spice cabinet!
