    Where to buy Dry Rubs in the UK?

    I always make my own. There's plenty of Asian food stores in the UK that sell spices in large quantities - don't bother with supermarkets as they as so expensive. With a big enough range of dry herbs and spices in your kitchen you're the equal of any premade rub in the world.

    25-strong Stag Party, and a first-time smoker

    Good morning from Liverpool UK

    Hi folks, Very glad to have found this group. I have my brother's Stag in a month and am cooking for 23 so have decided to take the leap and build my first UDS. I am addicted to watching BBQ Pit Kings and YouTube vids of builds. Sadly the UK is not a great place to find all the necessary...
