Closet Cooking

Cooking adventures in a small, closet sized, kitchen. - I came to realize that my meals were boring and that I had been eating the same few dishes over and over again for years. It was time for a change! I now spend my free time searching for, creating and trying tasty new recipes in my closet sized kitchen.

Dry Rub

[heart_this] · Aug 30, 2021 · 1 Comment

Dry Rub

A simple dry rub that’s sweet, spicy and all kinds of tasty, perfect for chicken, beef and pork!

An easy way to kick up the flavour of any meat is to season it, whether by simply sprinkling on some salt and pepper or using a blend of spices or a marinade. A dry rub is a combination of dry spices that are rubbed onto the meat before cooking, whether pan frying, grilling, roasting, or smoking etc. This dry rub is the combination of savoy spices along with some sweet and molasses-y brown sugar. The spices include paprika, a chili power, cayenne, cumin, onion powder, garlic powder salt and pepper. When I can, I like to apply the rub to the meat the night before cooking it to let the flavours penetrate but it is also good when rubbed on just before cooking.

In the summer I often, apply this rub to chicken and steaks before grilling them and in the cooler months I use it on roasts!
