❓ FAQ
- ❓ “Is it too salty or overpowering?”
No—Hunter is balanced to complement meat, not mask it. The sugars and herbs temper the salt perfectly.
- ❓ “Do I need to be a competition cook to use it?”
Not at all! If you can season meat, you can use Hunter. It’s ready to shake and BBQ, no skill level required.
- ❓ “Is it worth the price compared to making my own blend?”
Absolutely. You’d need 10+ ingredients and countless tests to replicate this—and it still wouldn’t score 287/300.
