How to Use as a Rub

Apply the seasoning evenly over the surface of your meat, ensuring full coverage on all sides. For best results, lightly coat with a small amount of oil first to help the rub adhere.

For quick cooks like burgers or steaks, season just before cooking. For larger cuts such as ribs, pork shoulder or chicken, apply the rub at least 30–60 minutes in advance, or leave overnight in the fridge to allow the flavours to penetrate.

Cook using your preferred method — grill, BBQ or oven — allowing the seasoning to develop a rich crust and deep flavour as it heats.

Use generously to suit your taste.

How to Use as a Paste

To create a paste, mix the rub with a small amount of oil, water or melted butter until it forms a thick, spreadable consistency.

Apply the paste evenly over your meat, coating all surfaces to ensure full flavour coverage. This method is ideal for larger cuts or when you want a more intense, well-bound seasoning layer.

For best results, leave the coated meat to rest for 1–2 hours, or refrigerate overnight to allow the flavours to develop.

Cook as desired — the paste will help form a rich, flavourful crust while keeping the surface well seasoned throughout cooking.

How to Use as a Marinade

To use as a marinade, mix the rub with oil and a small amount of liquid such as water, citrus juice or vinegar to create a looser consistency.

Coat your meat thoroughly, ensuring all surfaces are covered, then leave to marinate for at least 2–4 hours, or overnight for deeper flavour.

This method works particularly well for chicken, pork and larger cuts, helping to tenderise while allowing the seasoning to penetrate more fully.

Cook as desired — grilling, roasting or BBQ — for a well-seasoned result with balanced flavour throughout.

About Angus & Oink

Angus & Oink was born from a deep-rooted passion for bold food, fire cooking and big flavour. After time spent living and working across the Americas — especially south of the Tex-Mex border — the founding crew became obsessed with the vibrant world of BBQ, street food and grilled meat culture. From low ‘n’ slow Texas brisket to smoky pulled pork, Cajun seafood and punchy Mexican flavours, it’s safe to say… that’s where the flavour lives.

Bringing those experiences back home, Angus & Oink set out to recreate that same excitement on your plate. What started as a search for the perfect sauce quickly turned into something much bigger — experimenting, blending and pushing flavour boundaries to create products that genuinely stand out.

Their first creations laid the foundation, and from there things snowballed. Today, Angus & Oink is known for its fearless approach to flavour, combining carefully sourced ingredients, punchy chillies and serious recipe development to deliver sauces and seasonings that hit hard in all the right ways.

This is food without compromise — no unnecessary fillers, no shortcuts, just properly developed flavour designed to elevate everything from BBQ classics to everyday cooking. Whether you’re glazing wings, building tacos, smoking meat or just levelling up your midweek meals, Angus & Oink bring the energy, creativity and attitude of modern BBQ straight to your kitchen.

Expect bold. Expect different. Expect flavour that delivers.
