So I received a special care package from an SMF member last week. Whom, I'm not sure wishes to be identified. My bad I forgot to ask. So I'll let them make the decision on whether to reveal themselves or not . Anyway I need to apologize, because I said that I would use the gift last weekend. Well, come to find out the wife was sicker then a dog over the weekend and I caught a mild case of whatever it was on Monday. So that brings us to tonight. I decided to give it the ultimate test, because I kept hearing folks rant and rave about this product.
On to the test:
I picked up a few pre-made non-seasoned 85/15 burgers from the local grocer this afternoon along with some basic store bought rolls. Honestly you can't get any blander than that combo. I seasoned two of the burgers up with Jeff's Texas Rub and two with kosher salt and black pepper(my usual burger seasoning) Then I used my propane grill to cook them. See I didn't even give the burgers a chance to shine with the added benefit of wood and charcoal. The final verdict was UNBELIEVABLE!!! They were some of the bestest, tastiest burgers I've had in a long long time.
I'm including a couple of pics for good measure.
The burgers as you can see - plain janes:
Seasoned up with Jeff Texas Rub
and onto the grill:
Two slices of Swiss, pickles, ketchup, and a tomato: Strong enough flavors to cover a rubs weaknesses.
Stacked shot: Because it was on the camera:
Thanks for taking the time. I figured that if Jeff's rub could elevate a plain jane burger to the next level. I can't imagine what it will be like on a brisket, ribs, steak or chicken. I'm TOTALLY IMPRESSED and can't believe it took me this long to try it.

I'm truly sorry for not trying your products earlier. They are that good.
