Learn moreChaat Masala Butter and Grilled Corn
One of the best things about summer is the abundance of fresh corn on the cob. I was excited to see the first of the season's crop available at my local Farmer's Markets and was inspired to spice-up this classic BBQ side. Adding Chaat Masala to butter makes a perfect accompaniment to grilled corn. This beautifully flavored butter is delicious on just about anything that comes off your grill... fish, steak, veggies, you name it!
Learn moreAji Mirasol Salsa
Aji Mirasol chiles, the dried form of the Aji Amarillo, are a unique chile pepper absent from the arsenal of many chefs. A staple of Peruvian cuisine, their uniquely fruity flavor make Aji Mirasols a versatile pepper - great in a wide variety of dishes, but especially salsa. The combination of fresh citrus, cilantro and the slightly spicy Aji Mirasol chiles just begs to be eaten with grilled halibut, shrimp, chicken, pork or goat. Try some at your next barbecue and wow your guests with one-of-a-kind South American flair!
Learn moreCreole-Spiced Coleslaw
I'll admit it... I was a little skeptical about developing a spiced coleslaw. Coleslaw is one of those things I've long appreciated for its' simplicity, but boy, have I been missing out! The depth of flavor added from the Creole Spice and the bold, assertive heat of the chile flakes and Piri Piri makes the cooling quality of the mayonnaise and crisp cabbage in this slaw even more pronounced and refreshing. The classic juxtaposition of creamy, tangy, and crunchy that we love in coleslaw still sings here, but is undeniably enhanced by the savory blend of bell pepper, celery, and onion in the Cajun 'trinity' tradition.This slaw is interesting and delicious enough to be served as a side dish alongside any grilled entree, or top off a juicy pulled pork or fried fish sandwich with a generous scoop. Be warned- you may never be satisfied by the original version again!

These tacos are perfect summer fare, getting their flavor from beautiful swordfish, the smoke of the grill, and the tangy, complex flavor of Yucatan Rojo BBQ Rub. The creamy and crunchy slaw and the crisp, spicy pickled vegetables using our Limón-Chile are refreshing in their acidity, and a perfect complement to the dense corn tortillas. Garnish with plenty of fresh cilantro, and if you've got them, slices of buttery avocado. With my eyes closed and taco in hand, the Yucatan Peninsula comes to me!
Learn moreJerk Chicken
Summer means grilling, and there's nothing quite like the smell of Jerk Chicken cooking on the grill! Whether you use our Jerk Seasoning in a marinade or just sprinkled (liberally!) on the chicken, the aroma as it grills will have your stomach growling and your mouth watering....
Learn moreBar-H Beef Rub Marinade
Chock full of lemon and chile, Bar-H Beef Rub was made for summer grilled steaks. The only thing that could make it better, of course, is beer! We marinated this glorious tomahawk-cut steak overnight, then grilled it over red hot coals for a crispy exterior and a juicy, medium-rare interior. The Newcastle brown ale we used brought a nutty component, perfectly offsetting the tangy spice of the rub itself.Topped with a thick slice of a compound butter also made with Bar-H Beef Rub, this steak is the definition of decadent, but still oh-so rugged. We can still smell it sizzling on the grill...
