MEAT CHURCH VS. KOSMOS Q | Vortex Chicken Wings | Gulf Coast Smoke

Chicken Wings on the Weber Kettle with the Vortex attachment are truly amazing! But today we wanted to test out two seasonings that on the bottle look almost EXACTLY the same. This was the craziest comparison I've done yet, I was so happy with the results!
What should we cook next?!

This was the best comparison I've done yet! What's next? Y'all help me pick the next cook!

[@robertm2190]

I'm not here to rain on anyone parade, I love your work and the comparisons videos.... I am an industrial mechanic by trade , I work and fix machines in a manufacturer plant... I have worked for automotive battery plants, Windows company plants, auto motive detailing chemical plants , etc etc etc... 90 percent of the time when you buy a product a manufacturer will make it the same way or with a slight difference and put a different label on it.... example, at the automobile battery factory they would make 10,000 batteries of the same type, and 600 of them would have label 1 and the other with label 2 and alot of times with a different price tag.... I'm not saying this in all but sounds like in this video you can't taste the difference it's probably the same thing

[@KaeganThornhillTheCyberRaven]

@@robertm2190 Correct, a lot of Spice Brands get their Supply from the same Source/Importer and Copy each other Recipes. (while adding a small twist here and there.) The only time you can tell a big difference is if one Brand get a hold of " 1st pick spices" and another get "3rd pick spices". ( and one use a higher grade flavor enhancer/saver byproduct.) Other then that, there's little to no difference. (other than packaging & pricing) Edit: 👍 Glad to see someone else who's familiar with this fact.

[@GulfCoastSmoke]

@@robertm2190 I believe it, unfortunately. The great thing about us is we don't really have that option. We are very small and we created our own blend and went with it. I really do think ours is unique just because of that!

[@GulfCoastSmoke]

@@KaeganThornhillTheCyberRaven I definitely will not be the type of spice company that ever does this. Our rub is unique and we blended it in our kitchen before sending it off to get worked on.

[@KaeganThornhillTheCyberRaven]

@@GulfCoastSmoke So true, and like you said in the video -- Meat Church is a lot easier to get a hold of in stores vs KQ. So for some people that will be the winning factor. And the fact they taste 99% is plus. Also, I lost the Heart token on my last comment do to I had to correct a spelling error.

[@diggerwayne]

Great job. I like the idea of low/slow vs. hot/fast. Great excuse to cook two butts or briskets!

[@GulfCoastSmoke]

You ain’t lying there! I’m gonna do that very soon!

[@GHTRVSA]

I really like the Honey Chipotle Killer Bee over the Honey Killer Bee.

[@GulfCoastSmoke]

I’ve actually never tried it! I need to though!

[@douggrow3264]

Nice job. Enjoyed video a lot!

[@jessegranados909]

7:57 Classic! 😂😂😂

[@zackkatz4774]

Amazing video!! F’s in chat for that fallen soldier lmao 😂

[@GulfCoastSmoke]

Lmao dude I couldn’t believe that I had it, and choked againnnnnn!

[@13vansman]

I discovered Meat Church when looking for Thanksgiving turkey ideas last year. I chose their Bird Bath brine and the Honey Hog BBQ rub. My turkey turned out fantastic. I frequently make wings using lemon pepper, last night I decided to use the Honey Hog on a few wings. I loved it! With the lemon pepper, I use a mustard bbq sauce, Frank's, and a traditional BBQ sauce to dip my wings into. The Honey Hog wings didn't need any dipping sauce, they were excellent with just the rub. I'd never heard of Kosmos Q, I'll keep them in mind when my Honey Hog runs out. I loved your comparison video, my only comment would be to lower the volume of the music or raise the volume of your mic. I found your volume low, so I turned up the volume on my computer, then when the music came in, POW! a huge jump in volume. I had to keep toggling the volume while watching.

[@GulfCoastSmoke]

Thanks so much for the insight! I’ve learned a lot about editing since then and I think our newest videos are much better in that aspect! Watch one and let me know what you think!!

[@13vansman]

@@GulfCoastSmoke I just watched a few...MUCH better audio blend! Keep up the awesome videos. That Pig Candy...mmm mmm

[@chesneyman]

i would have just left that one wing to die after it dropped the first time. that vortex will scorch your hairs in no time flat! keep it up bro your channel will explode. subscribed.

[@GulfCoastSmoke]

I had to try and save the little guy, brother! I truly appreciate you!

[@hilander507]

I really like this video. I kept passing on the Meat Church spices at the Academy’s, but now I’m more informed so next time I will give it a try. I order my Kosmo Q spices and rib glazes thru the Ace Hardware website, and go pick it up at my local Ace Hardware store within a few days, and it’s always free shipping. It’s cheaper than ordering directly thru Kosmos website since shipping is free.

[@GulfCoastSmoke]

Heck yeah! Let me know what you think of them when you get them. I’m glad you enjoyed the video!

[@ryanshaw8663]

@hilander I always ordered Kosmos through Ace as well. Is it just me, or does it look like they don't offer the rubs (particularly the 1lb bags) anymore?

[@hilander507]

@@ryanshaw8663 I just checked and you are correct. Ace doesn’t have any of the rubs listed anymore. I hope they put them back soon. Thanks for the heads up.

[@amosdriedger8972]

Just discovered your channel and I gotta tell ya, I’m loving these comparison videos! Keep it going

[@GulfCoastSmoke]

Thanks, man! They’ll keep coming!

[@bwalton7]

Just did the Kosmos Q tonight after watching this and it was great! Thanks for some great videos.

[@GulfCoastSmoke]

You're welcome, bro! I just got in all the rib glazes and some wing dusts yesterday! New videos reviewing those are coming!

[@zackkatz4774]

Who’s here watching in 2023?! Love the vortex cook bro!

John Henry’s Pecan rub will change your life, put it on heavy and it carmalizes right on the chicken. Imo is better than than either in the video, i have tried a ton a rubs and like a lot but my fav has to be the Pecan rub. I personally like the Honey hog better than the killer bee, feel like their is more sweet/honey to it.

[@GulfCoastSmoke]

Never heard of that rub, but I’m ordering some right now! Thanks for letting me know. Anything that’s similar to it? I do a comparison video!

[@ViceCityLiving]

Gulf Coast Smoke brother he is right, John Henry’s rubs are great. I highly recommend “Chicken Tickler” by John Henry, it’s good stuff. Love the vids man keep em coming.

[@GulfCoastSmoke]

I’m definitely picking both of these rubs up for sure! Can’t wait to test them out!

[@billpederson1645]

Aren't those rubs for pork? I've used the honey hog hot for wings because of the spice but most sugar forward rubs are for pork. Love the video again, though. You're killin it.

[@GulfCoastSmoke]

Well, I had never tried Honey Killer Bee so I’m not 100%! I couldn’t find any pork at my local HEB and they started also doing limits on meat again so I resorted to wings. Regardless they were so delicious haha

[@ironwolf93x56]

Compare the Kosmo Q rib glaze vs Texas Rib Candy

[@GulfCoastSmoke]

That's a good idea! I already have some Kosmos Rib Glaze on deck!

[@felipemata2960]

That particular kosmo rub is available at Walmart as well. That one, dirty bird, and the cow cover

[@GulfCoastSmoke]

I gotta go hit up Wal Mart!!

[@lyndonharris1307]

Great video! Thanks for doing a comparison.

No problem, man! Thanks for tuning into the video!

love these tests. I couldnt find a big defference either.

[@sabrenacantu7021]

Those wings are beautiful 😍

[@GulfCoastSmoke]

They most definitely are!

[@jwalter75]

Buc-ee's sells a limited selection of both Meat Church and Kosmos Q. Picked up Holy Voodoo and Honey Killer Bee today. I think I'll do some wings with the Kosmos!

[@GulfCoastSmoke]

Jason Walter Hell yes! Can’t go wrong either way man!!

Try the bacon honey hog by meat church. i like that one better than both of the ones you compared

That’s the one of the only Meat Church rubs I’ve never tried! I’ll have to soon!

You should try Kosmos wing dust if you haven't already

I actually have and we like it a lot! I have the Honey BBQ and Garlic Parm I still need to use though!

Gr8 comparison between the MEAT CHURCH & KOSMOS Q RUBS...I have 2 weber kettle grills & was wondering in ur opinion as to what website shld I visit to get/order a vortex for my weber kettle? Also I hav the regular 22" weber kettle ; so I wondering if u knw of a website where I cld get/order a grill grate like the 1 y hav on ur video with the removable center grill insert/attachment??

[@GulfCoastSmoke]

Thanks so much, brother! To answer your question on the Vortex I got mine on Amazon, you just want to make sure to get the right size which is Medium for the 22! Here is the Vortex - amzn.to/3mLcE7a Here is the grate - amzn.to/3eGgQRb Both are really nice tools to have!

[@dewayneandrews642]

Thx Alonzo...Where do u get ur nitrile gloves from?

Both sides are hinged!

[@sladesmith3385]

What temp was your fire

[@GulfCoastSmoke]

To be 100% honest I'm not too sure! All I know for sure is the Vortex gets EXTREMELY hot! Usually the temperature gauge is all the way so I know it's over 500!
