Abandon All Hope! Pumpkin Spice Season Starts Today!

PUMPKIN SPICE BBQ sauce. Its tangy, its tasty, its got what you prey for in a barbecue rib, tomatoes, sugar , allspice and cinnamon. yummmmm

A local seafood spot is selling a ‘pumpkin spice’ lobster roll

Technically, the dish is only referred to as the “pumpkin spice” lobster roll in a tongue-in-cheek email from a publicist for the restaurant — on the menu, the dish is called the sage lobster roll and features fresh lobster meat tossed in sage brown butter, topped with lightly fried butternut squash and served on a toasted roll.

errrrr cinnamon's a pretty common ingredient in bbq sauces

Great question about flavors that are hot on the competition circuit right now…

I smell a lot of cinnamon coming from winning teams smokers. Any ideas on that? THANK YOU for your help.

I think the cinnamon you’re picking up is in the seasonings. I know I use a little in The BBQ Rub.

In small doses it goes well with smoked meat. I have judged some entries that tasted coated in Red Hot Candy and I can tell you that it wasn’t a pleasant experience. A little cinnamon can go along way.

That goes the same for All Spice. I notice it in popping up in some of the popular sauces on the market.

It’s another spice that can over power your pallet and judges can pick up on it quick.

With all you flavors and ingredients… Balance is the key!

if I could eat lobster I'd be all over this - because I worship sage brown butter and butternut squash together
