About Earl’s Gone Wild – Gourmet BBQ Sauces, Pepper Jams & Charcuterie Spreads
Earle Rothwell caught the barbecue bug as a teenager—unusual for someone growing up in California. What started as a passion turned into years of cooking, catering, and refining a style that blends traditional barbecue with fresh California ingredients.
Today, Earl’s Gone Wild creates small-batch gourmet BBQ sauces, pepper jams, and citrus marmalades designed for grilling, entertaining, and building unforgettable cheese boards and charcuterie spreads.
California Flavor Meets Classic Barbecue
Our approach is simple: take the bold, smoky foundations of classic BBQ and combine them with the bright, fresh flavors of California.
