GET YOUR GRUB SOME RUB

What’s Texas barbecue without a good rub? Just plain ol' meat! Add some oomph to your dishes with our three unique rubs, crafted from the finest spices and flavors. Inspired by the love we put into our own Franklin Barbecue, these rubs are perfect for brisket, ribs, steak, and even vegetables. Add that special touch to make your meals unforgettable on any occasion.

All Purpose Spice Rub

This spice rub is truly all-purpose. Folks will love it on chicken, pork, beef ... really just about anything! We think it’s got just the right amount of salt. Heck, at home the Franklins use it on their beans! This All Purpose Spice Rub from Franklin Barbecue is the perfect addition to every pantry.

Steak Spice Rub

In 2019, Aaron literally wrote the book on steak. No, really, he did! And after the book was published he went back to the kitchen to work on a spice rub to “enhance the beefiness” of your favorite cut. This rub is perfect for ribeyes, T-bones, tenderloins, strips, tri-tips, skirts, and more. If you’re feeling nostalgic for a great steak, this spice rub will help you recapture the magic. Great in sauces, you’ll love it for spaghetti & meatballs and beef stew, too! Want a taste test? Stop by Uptown Sports Club and ask for a basket of fries.

Brisket Spice Rub

Like all things at Franklin Barbecue, Aaron has pored over all the possible options of salt coarseness and pepper mesh to fine-tune our Franklin Barbecue Brisket Rub. Made to Aaron's specifications and inspired by the no-nonsense OG rub that Aaron has always used on our famous barbecue. Simple, yet powerful, our Brisket Rub is made to heighten the flavors of a good cut of meat; ideal to elevate your brisket but also ribs and turkey.
