Rational Rubs – Red

Bold • Savory • All-Purpose

Rational Red is the backbone of the lineup—a bold, savory, all-purpose rub designed to elevate everyday cooking without overpowering the food. Built around paprika, garlic, onion, and a carefully balanced blend of spices, it delivers rich flavor with just the right amount of warmth.

This rub shines on beef, pork, chicken, burgers, meatloaf, and roasted vegetables. It’s equally at home on the grill, smoker, oven, or stovetop—making it the one bottle you’ll reach for most often.
