What does Big Poppa’s Competition Brisket & Steak Seasoning taste like?

This rub delivers beef-forward brilliance: savory, peppery, smoky, and loaded with umami. It’s built with smoked sea salt, garlic, paprika, roast beef flavor, and savory depth, designed to amplify beef’s natural character without overwhelming it.

Is Competition Brisket & Steak Seasoning spicy?

It’s more about savory and umami power than heat. The pepper-forward flavor adds depth and bark without pushing the spicy envelope.

What meats go best with Competition Brisket & Steak Seasoning?

Tailor‑made for brisket and steak, this seasoning excels on tri‑tip, NY strips, and similar cuts. It also brings serious beefy flavor when used on poultry looking to channel that smoky, rugged vibe.

Can I use this rub on a pellet grill, smoker, cast-iron, or in the oven?

Absolutely. Whether firing up the pellet grill, firing up cast iron, or doing the classic low‑and‑slow, this rub performs in all formats, competition‑ready versatility.

Is Competition Brisket & Steak Seasoning gluten-free?

No, it contains wheat (via soy sauce powder) and soy, so it is not gluten-free.

Any pro tips for maximizing its competitive flavor impact?

Go heavy, then let it sit, apply generously to trimmed meat, let it “sweat” for 5–10 minutes (that’s when the magic happens), and then cook. The bark will go full beast mode.

I have ordered there seasonings before and they are still GREAT. I will recommend them anytime 😊

Steak rub?

I use to always get the Pappa's steak rub and I wasn't sure what appears to be the same but now called brisket & steak seasoning. Thus far, I've used it on steaks, blackstraps (venison), and in hamburgers, all which have been great. I would certainly feel this is a good rub for any beef recipes.

Love the spices/rubs

Tried BlueHogs Smokey sauce! Yum!

Still enjoying my BBQ’ing

Did a brisket for my family past weekend. Used your Money rub. Turned out well. Great bark with wonderful flavor. You are the best!,
