Spicy Rub for Barbecue

Makes about 1 cup. Published November 1, 2006. To apply spice rubs, sprinkle over the food and then
gently massage in the seasonings to make sure they adhere. As a general rule, use about 1 tablespoon of rub per portion of poultry or meat. Although this rub can be applied right before cooking, we’ve
discovered that the flavor of the spices penetrates deeper into the food if given time. Refrigerate
rubbed meat for at least an hour to maximize the return (large cuts of meat can sit overnight for
spicier, more intense flavor.
