Pop’s BBQ Pit is Headed to the Moore Expo

Pop’s BBQ Pit is Headed to the Moore Expo — Come Find Us April 17 & 18!

 

If you love the outdoors, live for the adventure of overlanding and camping, and believe that great food is an essential part of any trail experience — we’ve got some exciting news for you.

Pop’s BBQ Pit will be on-site as a vendor at the Moore Expo on April 17 and 18. We’re bringing the full lineup — sauces, rubs, jerky seasonings, and Granny’s Classic Country Collection — and we can’t wait to share what we’ve been cooking up.

What Is the Moore Expo?

The Moore Expo is a premier overlanding and camping event that brings together outdoor enthusiasts, gear brands, and adventure-minded people from across the region. It’s the kind of event where you show up curious and leave inspired — and we’re proud to be part of it.

Whether you’re a hardcore overland traveler or just getting into the camping lifestyle, great flavor belongs on every adventure — and that’s where Pop’s comes in.

What We’re Bringing to the Booth

Stop by and taste the difference. We’ll have free samples and our full product lineup available for purchase on both days, including:

  • Signature Series BBQ Sauces — Bold, rich, and built for the grill. Our Sweet Heat BBQ Sauce is a crowd favorite and a perfect companion for anything coming off the fire.
  • Pop’s Hot Honey Rub — The perfect balance of sweet and heat. Rub it, smoke it, love it. This one is trail-ready and camp-proven.
  • Hot Honey Jerky Seasoning — Made for wild game and beef alike. If you’re processing deer or making your own jerky at camp, this blend is a game changer.
  • Granny’s Country Classic Collection — Including Granny’s Apple Butter and other Southern staples that bring a little home-cooked love wherever you roam.

Flavor That Goes Where You Go

At Pop’s BBQ Pit, we’ve always believed that good food isn’t just for the backyard. It belongs on the tailgate, at base camp, around the fire ring, and anywhere else you find yourself outdoors with people you care about.

Our seasonings and sauces are small-batch, founder-crafted, and festival-proven. Pop perfected these recipes the old-fashioned way — through years of cooking, competing, and listening to what people actually love. Every bottle and bag that comes out of our kitchen reflects that.

Whether you’re packing light for a backcountry trip or loading up the rig for a week on the trail, our products are easy to pack and built to deliver real flavor wherever the road takes you.

Come See Us — Pop Will Be There

This isn’t a staffed booth with a stranger handing out samples. Pop, Granny and The Boss will be there in person, same as always — ready to talk food, answer questions, and make sure you leave with something you’re excited to cook.

We love events like the Moore Expo because they’re filled with the exact kind of people who take outdoor cooking seriously. Come by the booth, grab a sample, and let’s talk about what’s going on the fire this season.

Pop’s BBQ Pit at Calico Fort Arts & Craft Show | April 11–12

We’re Heading to Calico Fort — Come Find Us April 11 & 12!

 

Big news from the Pop’s BBQ Pit family — we’re packing up the truck, loading the booth, and heading to the Calico Fort Arts & Craft Show i Fort Deposit, AL on April 11 & 12! If you’ve been wanting to taste our products before you buy, or you’ve been a longtime fan looking to stock up in person, this is your weekend.

We love getting out into the community and meeting the folks who make this brand mean something. Calico Fort is one of our favorite shows, and we can’t wait to be back.

 

What We’re Bringing

We’re loading up the full Pop’s BBQ Pit lineup — everything from our flagship sauces to Granny’s Classic favorites. Here’s a look at what you’ll find at our booth:

  • Signature Series BBQ Sauces — Our hand-crafted, small-batch sauces that started it all. Rich, bold, and built for the grill.
  • Pop’s Hot Honey Rub — The perfect balance of sweet heat. Festival-proven and founder-perfected. Great on everything from chicken wings to venison.
  • Seasonings & Rubs — Versatile blends crafted for backyard BBQ, wild game, and everything in between.
  • Granny’s Classic Collection — Old-fashioned goodness straight from Granny’s kitchen, including her famous Apple Butter. These go fast, so don’t sleep on it.

 

The Story Behind the Booth

Pop’s BBQ Pit isn’t just a product — it’s a family. Pop perfected these recipes over decades of backyard cooking, and Granny brought her legendary kitchen skills to the table with her jams, jellies, and preserves. Every jar, every bottle, every seasoning blend we sell carries a little piece of that story.

When you shop with us at a show like Calico Fort, you’re not buying off a shelf — you’re buying directly from the people who made it. You might just find Pop himself behind the booth, ready to talk BBQ, share a sample, and help you find the perfect flavor for whatever you’re cooking.

 

Tips for Visiting Our Booth

  • Ask for samples! We love letting the product speak for itself.
  • Come early for the best selection — Granny’s collection tends to sell out.
  • Bring a friend — bundle deals and gift sets make great gifts.
  • Tell us what you’re cooking — we love matching the right product to the right meal.

10 Creative Ways to Use Pop’s Cajun Seasoning

10 Creative Ways to Use Pop’s Cajun Seasoning

Elevate your kitchen game with the bold, authentic flavors of Pop’s BBQ Pit. Our Cajun Seasoning isn’t just for backyard boils—it’s a pantry powerhouse that adds a kick to almost anything. Here are 10 ways to use it today:

1. Roasted Veggies with a Kick

Toss broccoli, bell peppers, and red onions in olive oil and a heavy dusting of Pop’s. Roast at 400°F until caramelized for a side dish that actually has some personality.

2. The Ultimate Cajun Butter Steak

Compound butter is the secret to a steakhouse-quality meal. Mix softened butter with Pop’s Cajun Seasoning and a squeeze of lemon. Let it melt over a hot ribeye for an explosion of savory flavor.

3. Zesty Cajun Shrimp

Whether you’re sautéing or grilling, shrimp cook fast and soak up spice beautifully. Dust them generously before hitting the pan for the perfect taco or pasta topper.

4. Crispy Cajun Chicken Wings

Forget the heavy sauces. For ultra-crispy skin with deep flavor, toss your wings in Pop’s before air-frying or baking. It provides a dry rub that packs a punch without the mess.

5. “Bayou” Movie Night Popcorn

Give your snack time a southern makeover. Drizzle fresh popcorn with melted butter and sprinkle on Pop’s Cajun Seasoning for a spicy, salty treat you won’t be able to stop eating.

6. Seasoned Sweet Potato Fries

The natural sweetness of sweet potatoes pairs perfectly with the heat of Cajun spices. Sprinkle immediately after frying or baking for that perfect sweet-and-spicy balance.

7. The Ultimate Dip Mixer

Stir a tablespoon of Pop’s into sour cream, Greek yogurt, or softened cream cheese. It makes an instant, crowd-pleasing dip for chips, crackers, or fresh veggies.

8. Avocado Toast & Egg Rimmer

Take your breakfast to the next level. A light dusting of Pop’s over a fried egg or smashed avocado toast adds depth and heat that black pepper just can’t match.

9. The Spicy Bloody Mary Rim

Ditch the plain salt. Wet the rim of your glass with a lime wedge and dip it into Pop’s Cajun Seasoning. It’s the perfect savory compliment to a morning cocktail.

10. Grilled Corn on the Cob (Street Corn Style)

Brush grilled corn with a little mayo or butter, then roll it in Pop’s Cajun Seasoning and a bit of parmesan cheese. It’s a southern twist on Mexican Elote that will be the star of your next BBQ.
