The Feedlot

The Feedlot is a family business run by a husband and wife team who moved to Australia from Texas in 2014 and started the brand in 2015. The name comes from cattle ranching, where livestock come together to feed, a lot like a backyard BBQ. The rubs are built for the smoker, the grill and the kitchen.

We stock the full rub range and sauces. Cattle Call is the signature all-purpose rub, with porcini mushroom for umami. Black Angus is big, peppery and earthy for beef. Grasslands is a bright herby rub for lamb and seafood. Forager suits pork and chicken, Heatwave adds chilli, Mexicue goes Tex-Mex and Crossbreed blends Cattle Call with Black Angus.

Try Grasslands on our smoked lamb rack or Black Angus on beef short ribs. More in beef rubs. Free shipping over $149, or click and collect in Brunswick.
