William Tischina, an employee at Savory Spice's Houston location, is also a member of the Pitmaker team. "Now everyone stopping by the store wants to buy the Malibar Cracked Pepper because that's what we used on the winning brisket," Tischina said. In Texas, salt and pepper are the primary spices used on brisket, and Pitmaker's win shows just how important it is to use top quality ingredients if you're looking for award-winning quality results.
On their 2nd place ribs, the team used Savory Spice's Team Sweet Mama's KC Style Rub along with their own mixture of other additional spices. For their entry in the poultry category, Pitmaker's team turned to a Savory Spice original recipe: Chicken Cordon Peru with Poblano Chile Sauce.
In 2015, Savory Spice co-owner Mike Johnston took a road trip of a lifetime, visiting 88 barbecue joints across the country in 43 days. During this Chasing BBQ journey, Johnston also visited Pitmaker in Houston. "We've worked hard to make sure our spices, blends and recipes are top quality," Johnston said. "I've always been passionate about great barbecue, so the fact that our products and recipes helped the Pitmaker team win big at this world class competition is a real honor."
