Campfire Rub Blend

Our Campfire Rub Seasoning is a carefully crafted artisanal blend, combining a range of unique ingredients to create a symphony of flavours. The smoked salt adds a salty note that acts not only as a flavour enhancer but also as a preservative, intensifying the depth of flavours and helping to tenderise the meat. The palm sugar, with its sweet and earthy balance, harmoniously sweetens the blend, creating a delightful harmony with the other spices.

The spices, such as smoked sweet paprika, shallot, garlic, smoked cinnamon, curry leaves, smoked Kampot peppers (red/black), and others, play a crucial role in bringing a diversity of flavours and aromas. They add a complex dimension to the Camp fire Rub Seasoning, evoking the authentic pleasures of an evening around the campfire. These carefully measured ingredients harmonise to create the perfect dry marinade, ready to elevate your meats and plant-based proteins by adding tenderness, character, and a delicious smoky touch.

Using a rub is a simple and effective way to add flavour to your meats, fish, vegetables, and even some vegetarian dishes. Here’s how to use a rub generally:

• Select the protein or vegetable: Choose the protein or vegetable you wish to season. Rubs are often used with meats like beef, pork, chicken, and lamb, but can also be adapted to seafood, vegetables, or even tofu.
• Prepare the surface: Before applying the rub, ensure the surface of the meat is clean and, if necessary, slightly damp. This will help the rub adhere better.
• Apply the Rub: Generously sprinkle the rub over all surfaces of the meat. Use your hands to gently massage the rub into the meat, ensuring it is evenly distributed.
• Let it rest: After applying the rub, allow the meat to rest for a while to let the flavours penetrate. This time can vary depending on the type of meat: for thicker cuts, you can let it rest for several hours or even overnight in the refrigerator.
• Cook the meat: Cook the meat according to your preference, whether on the grill, in the oven, on the stove, or on the barbecue. The rub will add a delicious layer of flavour during cooking.

Additional Tips:

• Don’t be afraid to experiment with different amounts of rub to find the taste that suits you.
• Add a small amount of olive oil or mustard to the meat before applying the rub to help it adhere.
• Rubs can also be used as a seasoning for dishes such as roasted vegetables, baked potatoes, or even barbecue sauces.
  By following these simple steps, you can fully enjoy the rich and complex flavours that a rub can bring to your culinary preparations.

The use of spice blends to tenderise meat has been practised for thousands of years in various cultures. Many ancient civilisations, such as the Greeks, Romans, and Egyptians, used various herbs and spices to flavour, tenderise, and preserve their meat.

The term “Rub” comes from the action of rubbing these spice blends onto the meat before cooking, allowing the flavours to penetrate and infuse the flesh. The Camp fire Rub Seasoning, with its smoky aromas, balanced spices, and exotic notes, follows this ancient tradition, offering a versatile and flavourful method to enhance your culinary preparations. By massaging your meats and plant-based proteins with a rub spice blend, you will impart incomparable tenderness and a delicious smoky touch full of flavours.
