Built for the Perfect Bark.
Great brisket isn’t just smoked, it’s layered with flavor from the very first coat of seasoning. Texas Style Brisket Rub is crafted to develop a rich, flavorful bark while enhancing the natural flavor of the beef. A bold blend of premium spices delivers the classic Texas-style profile pitmasters look for, creating deep color, balanced seasoning, and a beautiful smoke-kissed crust with every cook.
Whether you’re smoking a whole packer brisket, beef ribs, tri-tip, chuck roast, or burgers, this versatile rub performs from the first slice to the last. It stands up to long cooks without overpowering the meat, making it a trusted choice for backyard barbecue, competition cooks, and weekend pitmasters alike.
Crafted in Texas since 1967, Texas Style Brisket Rub is made with all-natural ingredients, contains no MSG, and is gluten free. Backed by four generations of Adkins family craftsmanship, it’s built on nearly 60 years of Texas barbecue tradition.

Cooking Tips
Apply a generous, even coat to all sides of the meat before smoking. For the best bark, allow the rub to rest on the brisket for 30 to 60 minutes before placing it on the smoker. Smoke low and slow until the brisket reaches your preferred tenderness, then allow it to rest before slicing.
For even deeper flavor, layer with Adkins SPG+ Seasoning before applying Texas Style Brisket Rub.
