Hardcore Carnivore Sweet is the ultimate weapon for anyone who loves that perfect sweet BBQ finish — glossy, sticky, caramelised, competition-style flavour that transforms ribs, pork, chicken, bacon and more into absolute showstoppers. This rub delivers the classic American sweet BBQ profile, but with HC’s signature clean, balanced, flavour-first approach.
The moment it touches heat, this rub comes alive.
The deep sugars melt into a gorgeous lacquered glaze.
The paprika and spices bloom into a warm, smoky-sweet aroma.
And the savoury backbone keeps everything in perfect balance so it’s sweet… but never too sweet.
It’s built for low-and-slow cooks, but it shines on hot-and-fast too. Ribs become candy. Chicken turns golden. Pork butts develop that shiny, sticky bark. Even fries, wings and popcorn get transformed with a dusting of this stuff.
This is proper BBQ sweetness — not artificial, not cloying, not overpowering — just pure, rich, mouthwatering flavour that makes people think you’re running a championship BBQ pit out the back.
Hardcore Carnivore Sweet is simplicity done right:
Bold colour. Clean sweetness. Big flavour. Zero fuss.
