About

Our Business

Chef Bob Gourlie has created a variety of unique, handcrafted spice blends that add flavour to almost any dish. If you name it, he has a blend for it! From beef to seafood to poultry to vegetables… there are lots to choose from for all different seasons.

The intention behind B.O.B.S. is to allow customers to keep a small variety of fresh spice blends in their cupboard to make cooking taste delicious without the fuss. Bob's love for cooking and trying new creative concepts makes it fun and exciting to keep making new blends. Stay tuned as Bob discovers more spice blends and recipes!
