Today we feature two essential products for any local, proud Canadian who loves BBQ! Don't forget to get one for yourself while you're checking them off your Christmas shopping list.
Well Seasoned BBQ Scraper: Is Dad still using the same, gross metal wire BBQ brush on his beloved grill? Do you have someone on your gift list who is out at their grill come rain or shine (winter, shminter - it's always time for BBQ)? Our BBQ scraper is adaptable to the hot grill as it creates custom grooves to fit your bbq without the worry of metal bristles in you food. Made in Ontario exclusively for us, from Canadian hardwood. No splinters, easy to use and most importantly, safe.
Haupy's Original Beaver Rub: This cheeky brand believes that Canada should be known for more than just poutine, and maple syrup..eh? This rub is incredibly versatile, perfect for chicken, pork, and beef. And really is exceptionally delicious on game meat. Stir it into soups, mix into sauces, the possibilities are endless. It's a versatile thing to have on hand and will be a welcome addition to a BBQ themed gift box, or to fill up someone's stocking!
Today's recipe is from Haupy's Seasoning and while you don't need to use your Well Seasoned scraper at the BBQ, we won't stop you if you decide to grill your squash before adding it to the soup...: Super Simple Squash Soup.
Available for online order, or in-store purchase today.
Well Seasoned BBQ Scrapers are $16.99 each, and Haupy's Seasonings are $10.49 each.
