I don't just cook — I test
Test everything. Trust nothing.
Welcome to the BBQ Test Pit. I test rubs, sauces, seasonings, gear, and the viral cooks flooding your feed. I tell you what's up. Then you go watch it.
The creed
Test everything. Trust nothing.
Big names like Franklin, Meat Church, and Goldee's sit next to supermarket staples like McCormick and Heath Riles. I also take the internet's most viral recipes — Guga, That Dude Can Cook, Chuds, Mad Scientist, Nick DiGiovanni — and ask if they taste as good as they look.
Comment a rub, a gadget, or a YouTube recipe you want cooked next.
Not a product company
I'm not here to launch a signature rub and then review it kindly. I put other people's stuff on the fire and say if it's trash.
Same cook, one variable
When two rubs go head to head, they see the same fire. That's the only way a $2 jar can beat a legend.
No filler, no calendar promise
A test goes up when it's done. If it wasted my time, I'll tell you before it wastes yours.
