Whether you're rolling your Smokey Joe out to the park for a casual cookout, or pulling out all the stops for a backyard 4th of July bash, Oaktown has the spices for you!

Thinking chicken? Try marinating it in our Jamaican Jerk Marinade recipe overnight for a fruity, spicy version. For something simpler, just rub on our St. Basil's BBQ Rib & Chop Rub and slap it on the grill.

Ribs? St. Basil's is a great match here too, or snazz it up with our Oaktown Sweet Heat. We love a low and slow cooking method.

Burgers? Add one of our blends to the patties to take them beyond basic. Grand Lake Shake adds a mustardy, oniony zing. Harissa provides a little heat and a Mediterranean twist. Montreal Steak and Chop gives a nice dose of pepper, garlic and herbs.

Veggies? The sky is the limit! We have a delicious recipe for eggplant skewers using our Urumqi Lamb Rub. Yes, this Chinese-inspired, cumin-loaded blend was formulated with lamb in mind, but it is equally fantastic on grilled veggies. 

Check out our BBQ-themed recipes below, and have a fun-filled, safe holiday!

Please note, we will be closed on Tuesday July 4th to celebrate. Orders will not be shipped that day.
