WATG? Sponsor- 3 Eyz BBQ

Dan, Jason and the gang over at 3 Eyz have been around the KCBS competition circuit since 2005. During that time they have won numerous awards including 4 Grand Championships. The rub that they sell has also been busy on the competition circuit, racking up its own wins placing 1st in 2009 and 2nd in 2008 at the Great American BBQ rub competition in Kansas City .

 

I was told the rub was developed for pork products, but I have used the rub on all meats and veggies in the home kitchen and found it to be very versatile. The shaker bottle will also tell you the product is very tasty on a variety of meats including beef, chicken and seafood. The rub is made in small batches and there are no anti-caking agents or MSG added during the process.

 

I find, while tasting the rub in its raw form right out of the shaker, it has sweetness initially, followed by a hint of garlic. There is also a very mild delayed kick, which I sometimes supplement with a dash of additional cayenne if I am looking for an attention getter. Out of the bottle, the heat is just right and can be adjusted accordingly if desired.

 

Other folks dinning on foods I have made using this rub have also enjoyed the results. I find that this product is a good “all round” rub to have in the pantry when you are looking for something to “kick the flavor up a notch”. I have even added 3 Eyz Rub while making crab cakes and gotten some really great reviews.

 

As far as use on the competition circuit, all I can tell you is 3 Eyz BBQ is currently ranked 5th in the Country on the KCBS web site for pork ribs. Pitmaster Dan Hixon will tell you he uses his 3 Eyz Original Rub when preparing his ribs in competition. For me, that speaks volumes. I have personal knowledge that several other teams on the circuit are using this rub and also producing favorable results.

 

In conclusion, I find the 3 Eyz rub to be an excellent rub for use around the home and also out on the competition trail. It can be used on a variety of products and enhances the flavor on most anything it is applied to.

 

You will find it available at many fine retailers around the Country as well as on their web site http://www.3eyzbbq.com/
