The Origin Story: Crafted in Frisco, Refined by Chefs, Proven by Fire
This blend’s roots trace back to the mountain town of Frisco, Colorado, where The Spice Guy first started sharing small-batch seasonings with local chefs. One of those chefs—Silverheels Bar & Grill’s executive chef—teamed up with the founder to create a rib rub worthy of both restaurant menus and backyard smokers.
What they built wasn’t just another BBQ rub.
It was a chef-crafted, flavor-balanced, no-artificial-color, premium rib seasoning designed to deliver consistent perfection whether you’re grilling, smoking, or roasting.
Frisco became the birthplace.
The blend became the legend.
