MA's Kitchen Barbecue Seasoning is a savoury, aromatic blend made for grilling, smoking and barbecuing. It gives a classic, smoky BBQ flavour and works as a dry rub for ribs, chicken and steaks, helping to build a well-charred crust on the grill.
The blend is based on salt with chilli, pepper, curry leaves, nutmeg, ginger, clove and cardamom, rounded off with onion, sugar, garlic and lime. The curry leaves and cardamom give it a Sri Lankan character. It comes in a 50g pack, and the maker's site uses it in a recipe for Sticky Korean BBQ Chicken Wings.
Ingredients
- Salt
- Spices & Herbs (Chilli, Pepper, Curry Leaves, Nutmeg, Ginger, Clove, Cardamom)
- Onion

How to use
Pat the meat dry, brush it lightly with oil and rub the seasoning evenly over all sides. Leave it for at least 30 minutes, or overnight in the fridge for a deeper flavour, then grill, smoke or roast as usual. It works well on ribs, chicken pieces, wings and steaks; the maker uses it for Sticky Korean BBQ Chicken Wings. The blend already contains salt, so taste before adding more.
