Our Story

BBQ Distro exists because the best barbecue in Texas shouldn't stop at the property line of a single restaurant.

We're a Texas-based distributor on a single mission: bring the rubs and sauces of the best pitmasters in the state — the ones with the Texas Monthly rankings, the Netflix features, the lines around the building — into your kitchen, your backyard, and onto retail shelves across the world. To date we've shipped to over 30 countries across 5 continents! 

We don't make the rubs. The pitmasters do -- these are their recipes. Joe Zavala makes the Sloppy Juan Sauces at Zavala's Barbecue. Goldee's makes the brisket rub that put them on top of Texas Monthly's list. We just made it possible for you to buy them without driving to Grand Prairie or Fort Worth at 4 AM and standing in line.

Today we ship direct to backyard cooks across the country, supply restaurants and retailers nationwide, and partner with our co-packer Absolutely World Class to make sure every jar that goes out is up to the standard the pitmaster's name on it deserves.

We're building this for the people who care about the difference between great barbecue and good barbecue. Welcome.
