My husband, Chad, does all the cooking at our house. He is a wonderful cook/chef and loves making up his own recipes. I am very lucky as I don't enjoy cooking at all and when I do cook it's pretty bad.
He has many organic spices, chili peppers &o powders, dried mushrooms, peppercorns, sea salts and smoked paprika to experiment with. He has been selling spices from our online store for several years now and we started out on eBay. We are PowerSellers but due to the many changes and fee increases, we had our own website built a couple of months ago. We weren't making any money and working very long hours so that wasn't good at all.
On our website we have:
1. Approximately 100 Organic spices and Ethnic spice blends
2. Several chili peppers and powders (Habanero and Red Savina)
3. Dried Mushrooms & Powders which are wonderful to have on hand as they last a long time (i.e. Porcini, Morel)
4. Peppercorns (i.e. organic and non organic; Black Tellicherry, Organic Equodorian
5. Sea Salts (i.e. Alaea Hawaiian and Bolivian Rose)
6. Barbecue Dry Rubs including an Award Winning Competition Rub with a secret recipe
If you enjoy cooking as much as Chad does then you should check out our website.

The Best Barbecue
Wow....we had the best party yesterday with lots of great food. We grilled using some of our wonderful Barbecue Rubs that we sell. We had 5 different grills going so our partiers had a choice of what they wanted.
We had pork chops with Applewood Smoke Barbecue BBQ Rub. A combination of the sweetest apple with a smoky flavor was a real crowd pleaser. It is also one of our personal favorites. This is an all-purpose rub that can be used on anything you want to barbecue.
We had shrimp with the African Heat Rub. Ingredients in this rub are Piri Piri (African Bird) chilis, Sugar, Sea Salt, Coriander Seeds, Onion Flakes, Red Bell Peppers, Black peppercorns, Garlic, Cumin, Lemon, Ginger and Paprika. The spicy bite of African Heat Rub will add the unique flavors of Southern Africa to your cooking. This rub is more sweet than heat! Great for shrimp or light meats and also gives vegetables a good kick. If you enjoy HOT our Award Winning Competition Rub below comes in HOT heat and would be your best choice.
The chicken breasts were rubbed with an Award Winning Competition Barbecue (BBQ) Rub. This is a great All Purpose BBQ Seasoning for use on all cuts of Beef, Pork, Poultry, Seafood and Vegetables. As with many barbecue rubs the ingredients are kept secret. Suggested Uses for this Competition Barbecue Rub: Sprinkle liberally over meat or vegetables. For best results with meats, apply the rub before cooking and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. For vegetables use as you would salt or pepper. We also have hot and medium heat listed. This team travels cross-country and has won several BBQ competitions including The Kansas City Royal. We also have this listed with a medium and hot heat for those of you who enjoy heat!!
We also had fish with Japanese Secret Barbecue (BBQ) Rub. It contains Black Sesame Seeds, White Sesame Seeds, Blue Poppy Seeds, Sea Salt, Wasabi, Nori, Kombu, Sea Lettuce Flakes, Chilis and Orange Zest. Great with fish, both cooked and raw (sushi). Mix Japanese Secret Barbecue Rub with olive oil and vinegar for a tangy Japanese style salad dressing. Stir fry your favorite meats, tofu or vegetables. No fillers and all natural ingredients.
Our salad was served with the The Best of the Mediterranean Middle East Olive Rub/Dressing which contains Sun Dried Tomatoes, Sea Salt, Roasted Garlic, Sun Dried Black Olives, Sugar, Oregano, Red Onion Flakes and Lemon Zest. Middle East Olive Rub is perfect for lamb, pastas, salad dressings, fish or any delicacy of the Mediterranean. No fillers and all natural ingredients.
We also had squash with Ol' Smoky Barbecue (BBQ) Rub which contains Brown Sugar, Maple, Hickory and Smoked Beech Wood Sea Salts, Roasted Garlic, Mustard Seeds, Coriander Seeds, Cumin, Ginger and Chiles. Ol' Smoky is the ultimate in American BBQ spice featuring wood smoked sea salts infused to add an authentic smoky sweet flavor to any food! Rub into ribs, chicken, beef, fish, game and more. Works extremely well with squash, potatoes and sweet potatoes. Try cutting a squash in half, add a pat of butter and a generous sprinkle of Ol' Smoky before grilling.
