Did my representatives make it to you yet, I haven't heard anything from them so im assuming you killed them already.

Oh, was that mystery package from you?  I told my wife to be on the lookout for some mysterious guys from New York so she called our people from out in the country and they took care of them.

Sako1 sent me an outstanding box featuring Texas rubs that he grew up with, Massachusetts rubs from his present home, and some assorted favorites. After it cools down a bit I'll be trying the Sugar Maple Rub by John Henry's and then post pictures of the cook and the treasure trove. So long till after dark and thanks. PS, I don't want to open that two pound bag of rub until I clear out a little freezer space.

Today I got my package. Thank you @SciAggie for the awesome assortment!  All the sauces and glazes are right in my wheelhouse. I can’t wait to try that black currant hibiscus guajillo sauce. I have not tried anything in the box. I’m super excited about the dried peppers. They can be found up here but I’ve never taken the leap to cook with them. I’ll be soliciting ideas from all you folks in the Southwest. The mesquite is another one I’ve shied away from. As you said in your letter it’s a strong taste. Well this will push me out of my comfort zone to try some new stuff. Need to find a home for that BGE bottle opener as well.

I was talking to a woman in Vermont, asking her why she had an orange bandanna on her dog.  She told me the story of the time a carload of guys from NYC pulled up on her road and got out all dressed in black leather and proceeded to aim at anything on 4 legs.  Over the years she said people had dogs and goats shot during hunting season.  So people took to putting orange bandannas on any pet or livestock they could!

That might be a true story my uncle use to tell me of the days he and some gumbas would head up to Vermont to go domesticated hunting

@steel_egg Here is a good basic recipe for preparing a chili sauce from the dried chilis. https://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/red-chile-sauce-chile-colorado-104411/amp

Wow I don’t even know where to begin. @Biggreenpharmacist knocked his box out of the park. I can’t wait to try everything. Esp that peach lightening. Thanks for everything!  Going to be a great 4th of just with some of these goodies. Thank you so much and thank you to @blind99 for setting this up.

I really appreciate your generosity and thought in to the box. Can’t wait to get in to these items.

@R2Egg2Q: I just came home from working out with my trainer-in a gym with no AC and temp at 89 degrees-to be greeted by two boxes stuffed with goodies! It sure made me forget about that damn heat and the weight lifting!

Where to start: This is a great selection, all from CA with the exception of the Yardbird. Thanks for including these rubs, I have heard many on the forum talk them up so I am excited to try them. The Rob's sauces look great, my husband is already staking out the sweet and tangy blend. The Q-Salt and Dust look amazing, I have never had anything like this. I can't wait to try them all when I cook at the Porkopolis EggFest in a few weeks.

You really hit this one out of the park, I would have never thought to try anything from California. Thanks again-looking forward to many cooks with these goodies!

OOPS-forgot the BGE bottle opener, which is going to be mounted on my back deck and the key chain opener-hubby collects these so that will be used also. And the cozy-well I feel the need for a cold beverage now!

Got a great box of next rubs and sauces to try from Adam @HendersonTRKing. You're right, I don't have many posts but you did a good job selecting things to send. There isn't much we don't like. Can't wait to try
these. And I love the shirt. Thank!

Man I hope you enjoy it. Theres several of those that I use all the time. I had a jar of blues hog in there. Guess when mrs pharm repacked it she left it out. I even took pics of it cuz I didnt want anybody to think I regifted a jar @ColtsFan sent me. The rocktown peach is good but I was gonna send muscadine or apple pie but they were out of both.

Okay now it's time to post my loot from the most excellent package Sako1 sent me today.
That is a two pound sack of Grand Champion Rub from Texas, 3 varieties of Dr. Rub from east Texas, one of Bone Sucking Sauce, 0ne of Pig's ASS RUB, and a pack of Beer Can Chicken Rub

Followed by real Maple Syrup, John Henry's East Texas Sugar Maple Rub, Tiger Sauce, and 4 packs of Char Crust Rub. The John Henry's has already been put to use on this turkey quarter breast.

Christmas in June. NorthGAcock did the Carolinas proud. Never had any of these except Dukes Mayo. Opened the Pickled Okra and munched while checking out each new surprise. Going to use the Mother Shuckers in some Bloody Marys this weekend. How hot is the Screaming ****? Thank you very much. Hope yours gets there soon

If you like that drank I can send you more. Money isnt necessary. Hell maybe in a few months we can just do another swap between me and you if you find something you really like.

I heard the UPS driver drive up and I was outside accepting the box before he reached my door.  Guess I was a little anxious to receive this!  Inside the box was a very generous assortment of sauces and rubs from Texas.  I asked for more sauce than rubs but wasn’t expecting so much.  Out of everything, I’ve only tried the Steak rub before so I’m excited to try out everything.  I’m thinking Snow’s BBQ sauce might be the first thing I try as eating there is on my bucket list.  Thanks so much Christie!! You didn’t mention your forum handle... perhaps @Navymom?

You are correct, forum name Navymom. I realized I didn't include that in my note yesterday. Hope you enjoy the sauces, I'll admit most are new to me, we don't use a lot of sauce.

Really like the salt lick sauces. They are unique in their own way. Also the uncle Chris steak rub. Use it on everything.
