Build the ultimate sticky rib feast

Finish your Bone Sucker ribs with a complementary Tubby Tom’s BBQ sauce for a sweet, sticky and deeply smoky glaze.

  • Sweet, smoky BBQ flavour that keeps you coming back to the bones

    Bone Sucker is one of Tubby Tom’s original seasoning blends: a sweet, deeply savoury BBQ rub created for seriously good ribs.

    White and dark brown sugars help form a sticky, caramelised crust, while oak-smoked paprika, mesquite-smoked salt, garlic and onion deliver layers of barbecue flavour. Black pepper, ginger, mustard and a touch of cayenne provide warmth without turning it into an aggressively hot rub.

    Beetroot powder and oak-smoked paprika give the finished ribs their distinctive deep pink colour. Despite its bacon-style smokiness, the seasoning is described by the manufacturer as vegan-friendly.

    Use it generously on pork or beef ribs before smoking, barbecuing or cooking slowly in the oven. Pair it with Tubby Tom’s Smokey Maple BBQ Sauce for the complete sweet, sticky and smoky rib experience.

    How it tastes

    Sweet, smoky and savoury, with bacon-style flavour, garlic, black pepper and gentle warming spice.

    What to use it on

    • Pork ribs
    • Beef ribs
    • Pork shoulder
    • Pulled pork
    • Pork belly
    • Chicken wings
    • Burgers
    • Sausages
    • Roast potatoes
    • Corn on the cob

    How to use it

    Trim the ribs if required, then apply the rub generously and massage it firmly over the entire surface.

    Cover and refrigerate for at least two hours—ideally overnight—to give the seasoning time to flavour the meat.

    Cook the seasoned ribs in a smoker, on an offset barbecue, over indirect heat or slowly in the oven. For a sticky finish, brush them with Smokey Maple BBQ Sauce towards the end of cooking, allowing each layer to set without burning.

    Always keep raw meat refrigerated while marinating and cook it thoroughly before serving.
