OUR STORY

1ST Place Ribbon | Award Winning Spices & RubsSome would say my passion for barbecue and cooking started as a little boy growing up in a small town in East Texas. My dad loved to barbecue on his little smoker and I was always captivated by the wonderful aroma’s coming from the pit as it cooked.  However, what really made an impression was the whole process involved in cooking barbecue, which usually started the day before the actual cook.

Each step was carefully planned. And I always wondered why it took so long to cook barbecue when my mother provided dinner every night in less than an hour. It wasn’t until after my first attempt as a boy that I learned. Like most rookies, I wanted that great taste of barbecue without waiting hours and hours. So, a few shortcuts were taken, the meat got a heavy dose of rub, the heat was turned up and on went the meat. Yes, Yes, for those of you who have barbecued before, you can stop laughing. I was young. The good news was the meat was done in a quarter of the time.

Since then, I’ve learned to love the process and playing with different flavor combinations. I spent the next 30 or so years, cooking barbecue for friends and family. Through the years and a lot of experimenting, I created some great tasting Rubs, Spices & Sauce blends. Then a few years ago, our neighborhood put together a Rib Cookoff.

My family suggested I enter. After it was over, I had won first place. The next year I entered again and again won first place. After the second win, people started asking for my recipes and suggested bottling my spices to sell.  I had never thought about it to that point. After my third win, I figured it was time.

We have always believed that natural, healthy ingredients are better for our bodies.  

We feel many of the foods we eat today are made from processed foods and contain too many chemical preservatives, artificial flavors and colors, and/or fillers that have no added flavor or benefit. We also know that some people have experienced adverse affects from ingredients like MSG and gluten.

Because of these reasons, I wanted to create a line of products that were MSG FreeGluten FreePreservative Free and contained no Artificial Colors or Flavors, but still held to the most important attribute: TASTE. 

The result is a more natural product that tastes amazing and is made up of actual spices, so you’re not paying for ingredients you don’t need.

How are Daddy B’s products different?

First, we believe that natural, healthy ingredients are better for our bodies. We feel many of the foods we eat today are made from processed foods and contain too many chemical food preservatives, artificial flavors and colors, and/or fillers that have no added flavor or benefit. We also know that some people have experienced adverse affects from ingredients like MSG and gluten. Because of these reasons, we wanted to create a line of products that were MSG Free, Gluten Free, Preservative Free, and Artificial Colors & Flavor Free. The result is a more natural product that tastes great and is made up of 98% actual spices so you’re not paying for ingredients you don’t need.

Your products contain Silicon Dioxide. What is it and why do you use it?

Silicon is a mineral. Silicon is also an indispensable part of the food we eat. It has been observed that silicon plays a significant role in the development of the bones, so it becomes necessary to include silicon food sources in our diets to maintain healthy strong bones and joints. Our products contain less than 2% of Silicon Dioxide by volume, but the main reason we use it, is for its anti-caking properties. Silicon Dioxide helps prevent ingredients from binding together which can help enhance taste and prevent clumping in the bottles. An even flow of the ingredients helps ensure you experience our spices the way they were meant to be enjoyed.

Why does your product cost more?

Some raw spices can be expensive. Because of this, some products on the market contain ingredients with no nutritional or flavor benefits to affect the weight. And, since blends are typically sold on weights, not ingredients, you end up paying for stuff you don’t need. Our Daddy B’s products are made from 98% actual spices. So, you get more of what you pay for. And, because of how many servings you get, our actual cost per serving is very low.

Will you be introducing other products in the future?

Absolutely. We have several other spice blends, flavored salts, sauces and marinades that we are working on. As well as, some other new and exciting products. We are excited about getting all these to market. So, if you love to barbecue, grill, or just cook, get ready to take your game up a notch.
