How to Use
Before smoking: Spread a thin, even coat of BBQ Mud over the brisket as a binder, then apply your favorite dry rub.
When wrapping: Add BBQ Mud to your usual wrapping setup to contribute savory flavor. Avoid excessive liquid if you want to preserve a firmer bark.
At serving: Serve BBQ Mud on the side as a condiment for sliced brisket, burnt ends, or other cooked beef.
How to Marinate Steaks, Chops & Vegetables
Steaks: Coat the meat lightly with BBQ Mud, refrigerate while marinating, and remove excess marinade before searing if desired.
Pork chops: Use BBQ Mud as a savory pre-cook marinade, keeping the meat refrigerated until cooking.
Vegetables: Toss or brush vegetables with BBQ Mud before grilling or roasting, or serve alongside the finished vegetables.
Keep raw meat refrigerated while marinating. Discard marinade that has touched raw meat unless boiled before reuse. Follow safe cooking temperatures for each protein.

Ask the Pitmaster
What is Butcher BBQ Mud?
BBQ Mud is a ready-to-use savory sauce that can serve as a binder before applying barbecue rub, an addition to brisket wrapping liquid, a condiment at serving time, or a marinade for steaks, chops, and vegetables.
Can I use BBQ Mud as a binder before applying brisket rub?
Yes. Spread a thin, even layer of BBQ Mud on the surface of your brisket before adding your dry rub. It helps the seasoning adhere and adds savory flavor at the preparation stage.
How do I use BBQ Mud when wrapping a brisket?
When you are ready to wrap your brisket, add BBQ Mud to the wrap as part of your preferred wrapping liquid or seasoning approach. Use enough to contribute flavor without flooding or washing away the bark.
Can I serve BBQ Mud as a condiment after cooking?
Yes. BBQ Mud is ready to use as a serving condiment. Offer it alongside sliced brisket, steak, chops, or other cooked foods so guests can add extra savory flavor to taste.
Is BBQ Mud a steak marinade?
Yes. Coat your steak with BBQ Mud before cooking and refrigerate it while marinating. Remove excess marinade before searing if you want a stronger crust. Discard marinade that has contacted raw meat unless it is boiled before reuse.
Can I use BBQ Mud to marinate pork chops?
Yes. BBQ Mud works as a savory marinade for pork chops. Coat the chops, refrigerate during marinating, and cook to the appropriate safe internal temperature.
Can I use BBQ Mud on vegetables?
Yes. Toss or brush vegetables with BBQ Mud before grilling or roasting to add savory seasoning. You can also serve a little alongside cooked vegetables as a condiment.
When should I apply BBQ Mud to brisket?
You have several options: use a thin layer as a binder during preparation, add it during the wrapping stage, or serve it as a condiment after cooking. Choose one or combine them according to the flavor you want.
Is BBQ Mud the same thing as a brisket injection?
No. An injection places a prepared solution inside the meat, while BBQ Mud is used on the exterior, in the wrap, or as a serving condiment. You can combine it with a separate brisket injection and rub if desired.
Will BBQ Mud replace my dry rub?
Not necessarily. When used as a binder, BBQ Mud goes on before the dry rub and helps it adhere. Its savory flavor can complement your existing brisket or steak seasoning.
Does BBQ Mud need to be mixed before use?
No. BBQ Mud is a ready-to-use sauce. Apply it directly as a binder, marinade, wrapping addition, or condiment, and follow the label's storage instructions.
