Ultimate Dry Meat Rub

aka JD’s Meat Rub

 

This meat rub is so versatile it’s crazy!

Have porkchops? Use this! Want to smoke a whole chicken? Use this!! If you need to add some heat aka spice add some chipotle powder or red pepper flakes. This recipe is courtesy of my husband Justin.

Brown Sugar! Brown Sugar!

This typically does enough for 4-6 porkchops or one whole chicken 5lbs.  If your meat is thawed it works the best- so thaw it overnight in your fridge. Rub this on your meat and let it sit for about an hour. The spices will melt  into the meat for a delicious flavor after you smoke/cook/fry/bake it!

 

Use the quantity below for a pack of 6 porkchops or one whole chicken

Ingredients: 

Directions:

  1. Combine the spice ingredients and mix thoroughly.
  2. Apply by rubbing onto thawed meat.
  3. Allow to sit for one hour for the flavors to melt into each other and the meat. (if you have the time)
  4.  Smoke/Cook/Bake/Fry it as you typically would.

We use this rub on our whole (or legs, wings, etc) organic chickens and use our Smoker by Pit Boss (ours is a PB820FB)

Another great way to use this is on Porkchops! Follow the above directions and busting our your cast iron you can apply the porkchops directly to a heated skillet and cook until done, flipping once.

Resources:
Purchasing spices in BULK from Azure Standard is a great way to go.
