"I'm going
to give you
a thread on your Aussie steak rub with pictures on our
site.. I love it! In fact, I had it last
night on some steaks. I like it better than Montréal steak
seasoning, which is normally all I use on beef. " |

"...At
the base, the dry marinades usually marry three basic elements:
paprika, sugar and a powdered pepper. With these three elements,
there are a pallet of tastes, and a whole field of tests by
varying the proportions and nature of each one: the peppers,
with choices amounting in the hundreds; choosing the best paprikas
and sugars to work with, and more. Once this exploration is
sufficiently advanced, you are only limited by your imagination so
you will find yourself adding other flavors to your marinade:
pieces of lemon peel or orange, herbs de Provence, spices like
cumin, or anything which titillates your palate.
Obviously,
you can do all that at home. But, if you are less adventurous,
you
can trust the Johnson's..."

"Two transplanted Texans have parlayed their
love of food - and how to flavour it - into a thriving business in
Ottawa and beyond. Joe and Amy Johnson first came to Ottawa
about eight years ago, when they moved to the capital for Joe's job
in the high tech sector. But their passion for food eventually
took over and what started as a small side business is now keeping
them busy fulltime..." |

"Your
dry rub was
awesome! I am
glad I spent my evening looking for the right product and

definitely going
to be a long term consumer going forward." |

"I used your
Sweet
Maple Dry Rub today
on 10 (yes 10) racks of ribs today. We had a bunch of
company over. The rub is awesome! I am
for sure absolutely 100% going to be using it in when I
compete in St. Catherine's this month. It was terrific!"
and a follow up report after her competition:
"With Caroline's Rub I
was able to have a very successful finish of 6th out of
25 teams in the Amateur competition in St. Catharine's
for the 2006 season. The rub was a key ingredient to my
success as a first time entrant. It was sweet with a
great hint of heat and matched perfectly with the ribs
and sauce. Caroline's Rubs are consistently terrific.
They are good value for the money and will be a sure hit
with your family and friends. I plan on using their rubs
in all future competitions due to the high quality and
great taste. I recommend them highly."

"My family likes it
when I barbecue, but they went absolutely nuts over the
ribs I made using your
Sweet
Maple Dry Rub!
It was 'awesome' according to my ultra-picky 7 year old,
and it is now her favorite seasoning on just about
everything!"

"I don't take the
time very often to write a manufacturer to tell them
how much I enjoyed their product, but after using
your
Sweet
Maple Rub,
I had to say something! What a delicious blend, not
too sweet, nor too spicy. This rub was just right!"

"I received my order
today, one bag each of your Sweet Maple Rub and Pork and
Poultry Blend. One problem though...the mail was an
hour too late, and the ribs were already rubbed and on the
smoker! But I did make my world famous beans to
go with the ribs and this time I added one big ol' heaping
tablespoon of your
Sweet
Maple Rub, and I must say these beans were the best
my family & I have ever had! We can't wait to try
these rubs on some meat so...
This morning, I
Smoked up a sausage "Fattie" rubbed with your
Pork and Poultry Blend and served it with scrambled eggs
dusted with the
Sweet
Maple Rub...MMMM! Now this was good. Thought I'd
send pictures...Interesting use for your rubs don't ya think
- simple and good!"

Amazing Pork and

It really was absolutely amazing!! The perfect
blend of spices and flavors that really complimented our
pork tenderloin. We are hooked!" |

Pork Tenderloins in a Bourbon Peach BBQ Sauce recipe last night using your

that, too!!!" |

"Last
Saturday evening, I had a birthday celebration where each of my
three sisters from Toronto and my brother came for dinner. I had
received a sample pack of Caroline's
Amazing
Pork and Poultry Blend in a
grab bag from the Women's Day Conference and decided to try it on
our barbequed pork. I followed the instructions on the pack and
let the treated meat sit overnight.
Well, the meat was so scrumptious that my guests kept telling me
throughout the evening how wonderful it was! I wish I could've
taken the credit. It was so easy to do ! It was spiced just right.
I had two previous packages that I was saving for another occasion
but ended up giving them away that night and plan to pick up more
to send to Toronto with a note so that they can access your
website for reordering.
Thank you Caroline's Rub! Because of your dry rub my dinner party was a
great success!" |

eating the best steak dinner I have ever made, and the
only thing different from what I normally do was add

That stuff is incredible!"

"My homemade

something. But, not since I started making it using your
Texas
Chili Seasoning - it is the perfect chili powder for all of my
Mexican cooking!!" |

that's not a problem anymore now that we've found your
Texas
Chili Mix!"

"I wanted to write
because I made your recipe for Texas
Chili, using your
Texas
Chili Seasoning for a church function we had, and it was a complete hit.
The other ladies in my group raved about it and I even had a
number of people ask for the recipe – that means a lot coming
from a bunch of church ladies whose own dishes are always the
best! The flavors and aromas were incredible. Best
thing was, it was spiced perfectly - not too hot, nor too mild." |

"I
recently saw an episode of Good Eats with Alton Brown
and he mentioned smoked salts, something I had never
heard of. I visited your site and decided to give
them a try. I bought your
hickory
smoked sea salt, and it is now a regular on our kitchen table. I
love the smoked flavor..." |

"My wife and I are most pleased with our
initial order ...
hickory
salt and
lemon pepper ... from your company. We thoroughly enjoy
the two products and recognize them as quite unique for our
BBQ purposes. We also appreciate your fine packaging which
is attractive, compact, and very easy to open, use, and seal
from external interference..." |

"Being someone who
can't add salt to his diet, I really appreciate that you
don't add any salt to your
Lemon Pepper Blend
or
Texas Chili Seasoning...you really know how to let the
natural flavors of the ingredients shine through on
their own."

"I am so glad your
Lemon Pepper Blend is back! I love it. Most
of the blends out there are "polluted" with all sorts of
other ingredients. If I wanted garlic - lemon - pepper
- ginger - onion - salt seasoning, that is what I would buy!
Yours is pure and simple, with loads of lemon and pepper
flavor - thank you for giving me what I want!" |
