Recipe of the Day

What is Moon Rock?

Moon Rock is our flagship seasoning — a deep, dark, savory blend that builds a serious bark on the smoker and a serious crust in the pan. It leans rich and roasty without going sweet, which is exactly why it crosses over.

It earns its keep on meat. But the same blend that crusts a tri-tip also rims an espresso martini and finishes a square of 70% dark chocolate. That range is the whole point.
