Swimmin’ In Smoke
Swimmin’ in Smoke was founded back
in 2010 by me, Michael J. King. Before venturing into Professional Competition
BBQ, I had been making my own all purpose seasoning. I didn’t have a name for
it. I first created it some time ago around 1993. I had been making my own rub
to enjoy with my family and friends. I didn’t like to bring all the spices I
needed out to the grill every time I wanted to barbeque. So I created an all in
one grilling spice I soon called Chik Bait. After competing in competition BBQ
for a while, I started to formulate some new rubs for the 4 main meats in
competition BBQ (Chicken, Pork Ribs, Pork Butt & Beef Brisket). All four of
my rubs have won awards in the professional BBQ circuit (Including the KCBS and
BCS sanctioning bodies). I came out with a new rub in 2012 called Fish Bait. In
2014 I came out with 2 new rubs called Cattle Call and a Salt Free Chik Bait.
All of my rubs are made with passion and from the heart.
Be on the look out for new rubs!
Chik Bait®

Chik Bait is an all purpose rub /
Seasoning, NOT just for chicken. It is a salt, pepper and garlic based rub.
This seasoning tastes great on
pork chops, lamb, seafood, hamburgers and even salad. We have heard from some
people and the things they use it on are; pork butt, eggs, sandwiches, celery
with cream cheese, Ramen noodles, corn, steamed veggies and even bagels with
cream cheese. The list goes on.
I use this on “little chicken
wings” (my kids call them) as a dry rub. We love it!
Boo Yah Beef
Gluten free and contains no MSG.
Well… The name pretty much sums
this rub up perfectly! It’s for Beef! And it’s the Bomb! Your Brisket wont be
the same!! Put this on steaks and every one will call you the Grill Master!
This has a little heat and not too
much salt.
This is great on any red meat. Rub
it on your Holiday Prime Rib… yup, it’s that good! Hamburgers, meatloaf, roast,
veal or even ribs will never be the same. People have used this on a lot of
wild game also.
I use this on all my comp
briskets.

Booty Shake

Booty Shake actually got its name
while I was at a BBQ Competition with my wife and kids. I was shaking my home

will have you wanting to put it on everything.

Fish Bait

This is a salt, pepper, garlic
& citrus based seasoning
I was cooking fish one night and
thought it would be nice to have one bottle of seasoning for fish that I liked.
For the next few weeks I cooked and cooked fish until I got the flavors just
right. Now every time I cook fish, I grab some Fish Bait.
People have used this on, chicken,
pork chops, veggies, salads, stir-fry, shrimp and even fish.
I Love it on pan fried Cat Fish.
