Sweet flavors work beautifully to balance the smoky and savory qualities of barbecue, and for this year's holiday season, PS Seasoning unveiled a Gingerbread BBQ Rub that blends the familiar comfort of holiday cookies with backyard BBQ.
Inspired by foodies' love of newstalgia, this fresh yet familiar savory-sweet BBQ rub flavor comes together with a combination of brown sugar, ginger, cinnamon, molasses, and natural vanilla, plus ancho chili for a subtle smoky finish.
Beyond seasoning proteins, the versatile Gingerbread BBQ Rub can be used in tons of other festive recipes, like the brand-recommended Gingerbread Sweet Potato Gnocchi, Gingerbread Smoked Butternut Squash Soup and even Gingerbread Pumpkin Pie, which incorporates the limited-edition Gingerbread BBQ Rub into the custard filling.
