World Spice Syrian Za'atar is a ready-to-use Middle Eastern spice blend built around toasted sesame seeds, tart sumac, cumin, coriander and a subtle anise finish. It brings brightness, nuttiness and aromatic depth to grilled lamb, chicken, vegetables, flatbreads and everyday meals without adding chili heat.
Use it as a dry rub before cooking or sprinkle it over finished dishes straight from the jar. Its focused Syrian-style flavor makes it useful for cooks who want a complex seasoning without combining several individual spices.
Why You’ll Love It- Bright, tangy flavor: Sumac adds a tart note that livens up grilled and roasted foods.
- Toasted spice character: Sesame, cumin and coriander create a warm, nutty foundation.
- No added heat: The blend contains no chili peppers or cayenne.
- Ready to use: Sprinkle it directly from the jar without additional mixing.

- Grilled chicken thighs and whole spatchcocked chicken

With over 35 years of smoking experience, we started DDR BBQ Supply with a simple goal: to help others cook better barbecue. We've spent decades learning what works and what doesn't, and we apply that knowledge to every product we carry. From high-performance grills and smokers to carefully selected rubs, sauces, and tools, everything we offer is something we believe in and use ourselves. We don’t believe in cutting corners or selling gear we wouldn’t rely on during our own backyard cooks and when we compete in BBQ competitions.
