Texas Salt Co. Szechuan Peppercorn is sourced from farms in Sichuan, China and carefully dried to preserve its bold aroma and distinctive flavor. Unlike traditional black pepper, Szechuan peppercorn delivers a unique mouth-tingling sensation balanced by bright citrus and subtle floral notes.
Known for its naturally occurring sanshools, this peppercorn creates the signature numbing heat found in authentic Sichuan cuisine. It is also a key ingredient in Chinese five spice powder and adds unmistakable depth to stir-fries, grilled meats, and bold seasoning blends.

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.
