Ingredients You Need For Your Butcher Shop
by Jodi MacKinnon (QFG)

Your customers love the unique rubs and marinades you use on your meats. And if you’re anything like the other butchers we work with, you love making them and coming up with new ones.


We shop marinade and rub ingredients to butcher shops across Canada from our warehouses in Toronto and Vancouver.


Better ingredients mean they, like you, can turn those ingredients into pretty spectacular stuff.


So use some of these in your marinades and rubs. Your customers will notice, and they'll ask for more.


The best ingredients for rubs and marinades


Smoked Atlantic Sea Salt

Smoked Atlantic Sea Salt

Make your own unique finishing rub, then stock your shelves with it. A creation all your own, your customers won’t be able to get it anywhere else.

Black Truffle Olive Oil

Black Truffle Olive Oil

Add a dash of black truffle oil to your poultry marinade, and your customers will be back for more tomorrow. The flavour will be unforgettable.

Tellicherry peppercorn

Tellicherry Peppercorns

The finest pepper in the world! They bring a deep, rich, earthy flavour and aroma with slightly fruity notes and a mild, quickly dissipating heat to marinades and rubs. They pair well with David’s smoked paprika in marinades.

Rougie Duck Fat

Rougie Duck Fat

Seared steak is at its best when cooked with Rougie Duck Fat. You know, but do your customers? They will when you start carrying it and tell them about the rich, silky flavour that comes with it. And they’ll love that it only comes from Quebec.

Apple Cider Vinegar

You use apple cider vinegar in so many marinades, from steak to pulled pork. David’s Apple Cider Vinegar comes straight from Ontario orchards and supports local farms through the growing season.

Kecap Manis

Kecap Manis

The secret ingredient in your chicken marinades should be this sweet, thick Indonesian soy sauce. New flavours can sometimes taste deliciously familiar, and that’s exactly what your customers will get from any of your marinades made with these deep and complex flavours.

Your customers might also appreciate some green peppercorns for Steak au Poivre or some black truffle paste to finish their meat immediately before serving.

Between the marinades and rubs you make yourself and the unique ingredients you put on your shelves, your butcher shop will be the only place they need to go for dinner supplies all week.

Your butcher shop’s customers love buying marinated meats. It saves them a bunch of time and work, and it lets them explore flavours they might never think to combine themselves.

They trust you because you’re a local artisan. They trust you because you use local ingredients whenever possible. You can save time on your marinades and still give your customers the local love they’re used to.

David’s Teriyaki Carolina BBQ Sauce

The perfect mix of tangy sweetness and acidity is provided by a good BBQ sauce, with the added savoury teriyaki flavour. It’s good and thick, and you can add your own touch with a bit of tomato paste or agave for the chicken marinating in your display window.
