Honey Hog with a Bacon Twist

Honey Bacon starts with inspiration from one of Meat Church's most recognizable sweet BBQ seasonings: Honey Hog.

Meat Church takes that sweet honey-forward foundation and adds bacon-inspired flavour, creating a rub that combines sweetness with savoury character.

The result is a seasoning that's familiar enough for fans of Honey Hog while offering a distinctly different flavour for chicken, ribs, fish and even snacks.

Sweet Honey & Savoury Bacon-Inspired Flavour

Honey powder provides the sweet side of Honey Bacon's flavour profile, while paprika, garlic, spices and natural flavouring help build its savoury BBQ character.

This sweet-and-savoury combination makes Honey Bacon particularly useful when you want more than a conventional sugar-forward BBQ rub.

Excellent on Chicken

Poultry is one of Meat Church's primary recommendations for Honey Bacon.

Use it on chicken wings, thighs, drumsticks, breasts or whole chickens before smoking or grilling. The sweet honey character and savoury seasoning complement chicken particularly well.

Meat Church has also featured Honey Bacon in its own spatchcocked BBQ chicken recipe, seasoning the chicken before roasting it on a pellet grill.

Bring It to the Ribs

Honey Bacon is also a great option for pork ribs.

Meat Church has used Honey Bacon in its own baby back rib recipe, pairing it with Fajita seasoning before smoking the ribs.

The combination of honey sweetness, paprika, garlic and bacon-inspired flavour makes it a natural fit when you want sweet-and-savoury ribs with a flavour profile that's different from a traditional pork rub.

Great on Fish

Meat Church specifically recommends Honey Bacon for fish.

Use it before grilling, smoking or roasting fish whenever you want to replace a traditional herb or citrus seasoning with something sweeter, smokier and more BBQ-inspired.

Yes, Put It on Popcorn

This is where Honey Bacon gets especially interesting. Meat Church doesn't just suggest popcorn as an alternative use—they specifically highlight it as one of the seasoning's standout applications.

Shake Honey Bacon over freshly popped popcorn for a combination of sweet honey and savoury bacon-inspired flavour. It's an easy way to use the bottle even when the smoker isn't running.

More Than Just a BBQ Rub

Honey Bacon's versatility makes it useful well beyond traditional barbecue.

Experiment with it on roasted potatoes, grilled vegetables, fries and other savoury foods where a combination of sweet honey character and bacon-inspired seasoning makes sense.

That versatility makes Honey Bacon one of the more unusual Meat Church seasonings to keep in the kitchen as well as beside the grill.
