Java Rib Sauce

Java Ribs are bitter, sweet but not bittersweet

Our Java Ribs is the perfect unique flavoring for your next visit to Porklandia. A great combination of bitter and sweet from the rub to the sauce. Top off with our Java Rib Sauce and you will have to open your own coffee (ribs) house.

The Rub

The Java Rib Rub rub is versatile. Not only does it compliment pork ribs, it’s also great on beef and pork, especially flatirons and chops. No matter if you have a hot/fast grill session or a low/slow smoke on tap, this rub works well in both situations.

This Java Rib Rub doesn’t overpower the protein with the taste of coffee. Instead, it adds.a rich, earthy flavor that is somewhat bitter, but a big kick of sweet, too.
