Rub Shack/ by Shelley Lance, Blog Editor

I took a stroll down to the Pike Place Market to check out the newly opened Rub Shack, right between Etta’s and Seatown. This is the place where you can stop in for a sandwich or pick up some rotisseried meats or chicken to go, or you can eat at one of the very appealing picnic tables right out front while drinking a cold Rainier. (The view from inside the Rub Shack looking out on the picnic tables, photo top).  All the meats, poultry, and fish featured here are seasoned with our delicious spice blends, Rub with Love.

I had a hard time choosing between the BBQ chicken sandwich with BBQ sauce and the roast pork sandwich with pickled peppers.  Also the daily special salmon salad sandwich sounded pretty good. But I went for the Piri Piri turkey with sriracha mayo and pickled green tomatoes.  The meat was sliced and the sandwich assembled in moments (photo above) and I was on my way back to the office.

The turkey sandwich, eaten at my messy desk covered with cookbook editing work, turned out to be delicious- tender turkey, beautifully seasoned, on a soft housemade roll with perfect condiments.  Now that the weather is warming up (hmmm… or even if it’s not) this is a fantastic spot to pick up a quick summer lunch.

    The Rub Shack is a great place to purchase all things “Rub with Love”, from Salmon Rub to Triple Garlic Teriyaki or even a “Rub with Love” T-shirt.
