Slap Yo’ Daddy BBQ California Style Santa Maria (SPG) Rub

Bring championship-level flavor to your grill with this standout rub. Designed specifically for the Santa Maria style of barbecue, it elevates tri-tip, steaks and more.

• Developed by pitmaster Harry Soo and winner of the 1st Place title in a Kansas City Barbecue Society-sanctioned Santa Maria Tri-Tip Championship.
• A refined “SPG” base (Salt, Pepper, Garlic) enhanced with extra ingredients for deeper savouriness beyond the typical trio.
• Crafted for Santa Maria-style tri-tip, but versatile enough for beef, pork, chicken, sausages, even vegetables and tofu.
• Clean label: Gluten-free, no MSG, small batch production in the USA.
• Easy to apply: Pat meat dry, coat generously, optionally rest, then grill, smoke or roast for the signature crust and flavor pop.
• The flavor profile features bold pepper, savory garlic, subtle sweetness and a clean finish — great for bold cuts like tri-tip or ribeye.
• Packaged in multiple sizes (12 oz, 26 oz) to fit everyday cookouts or serious backyard sessions.
• Whether you’re using charcoal, pellet or gas, this rub delivers a consistent “competition” level seasoning for backyard heroes.
• A go-to when you want your meat to stand out — not just be seasoned, but to make an impression.
• Ideal for tailgates, weekend barbecues or when you want that premium flavour without overcomplicating your prep.

In short: This is SPG done right — salt, pepper and garlic are at the core, but the blend steps up to a richer, more sophisticated level. Use it on your next tri-tip, steak or roast and you’ll taste the difference.

Awesome on:

• Santa Maria tri-tip roast or grilled chops
• Ribeye, New York strip, flank steak or sirloin
• Hamburgers or steak burgers for enhanced flavour
• Pork loin or chops when you want beef-style seasoning
• Sausages or beef ribs
• Grilled vegetables like portobello, zucchini or roasted potatoes for a savoury edge
