Jon York of Russell’s BBQ, an NBBQA member, sent us several of their rubs and sauces to try. We can’t talk about all of them because we don’t have enough space, but we can confidently say that every product we tried was fantastic. Some of these rubs brought back childhood memories from our dad’s grill to our favorite childhood BBQ spot.

Butt Rub:
This rub is a great all-purpose seasoning. It was fantastic on the pork steak we tried it on. However, it will work well on just about anything. The spices create a tasty crust and bring out the meat’s natural flavors. It’s versatile, flavorful, and a must-have for any BBQ lover. Russell’s Dam Good Burg Rub: Looking for a healthier option without losing flavor? The sugar-free burger rub is perfect. It’s great for all your grilling needs, offering a bold taste without the added sugar. We used it on burgers, and they tasted amazing. It’s a great choice for anyone watching their sugar intake but still wanting to enjoy great BBQ flavors.

Russell’s Dam Good Beef Rub:
Russell’s BBQ says this is the best brisket seasoning you’ll find. We found it was excellent on steak too. The rub brings out the rich, savory flavors of the beef, making every bite delicious. It’s a game-changer for any beef lover.

Russell’s Dam Good Big Dill BBQ Sauce:
Yes, you read that right—Pickle BBQ Sauce! Also known as the Big Dill Sauce, this unique sauce was the #1 winner in the 2024 Sauces of Honor Seafood category. The tangy flavor reminds us of eating BBQ pulled pork sandwiches at one of Georgia’s oldest BBQ restaurants. It pairs wonderfully with different meats and will be a hit at your next cookout.

Russell’s Dam Good Berry Garcia BBQ Sauce:
This sauce combines the sweetness of maple syrup and blueberries with a subtle hint of chipotle heat. It’s made with local maple syrup from Nova Maple Syrup, and it’s one of our absolute favorites. The balance of sweet and spicy is perfect, making it a versatile sauce that enhances everything from chicken to pork.

Russell’s Dam Good Carolina BBQ Sauce:
If you’re looking for a great sweet mustard sauce, look no more! This is their version of a honey mustard BBQ sauce, blending the best of North and South “meats” and East & West flavors. It’s a unique twist that brings a delicious balance of sweet and tangy to your BBQ dishes.

Overall, Russell’s BBQ rubs and sauces have earned a permanent spot in our BBQ toolkit. The flavor profiles of these products are simply outstanding. Whether you’re a seasoned grill master or just starting out, these products will elevate your BBQ game to the next level. We agree these products are “dam good”!
