Miss Loretta’s Voice: BBQ Wisdom with Southern Sass

“Baby, I don’t do shortcuts and I don’t do secrets. This rub? It’s built on backbone—sweet heat, smoky soul, and just enough sass to make your ribs holler. I’ve been mixing this blend since folks still called me ‘Little Lo,’ and I ain’t changed a thing.”

“You won’t find no coffee grounds or mystery powders in my pantry. Just honest spices, measured by hand and stirred with love. That’s how we do it in Cantonment.”

“So when you lay this rub on your ribs, don’t rush it. Bake ‘em slow, braise ‘em bold, and blaze ‘em proud. That’s Card Number Four, sugar—and it’s got my name all over it.”
