Editor's note:The recipe and introductory text below are adapted from Elizabeth Karmel's Web site,girlsatthegrill.com.
This rub has all the classic barbecue notes: salt, spice, sweet, and smoky. It is particularly great onribsbut works with pork chops and tenderloin, chicken and even catfish for an authentic low 'n slow barbecued flavor.
Ingredients
Step 1
把辣椒粉、盐、糖、红糖、孜然、chile powder, black pepper, cayenne, onion powder, garlic powder, celery salt, and oregano in bowl; mix well. For a smoother rub, puree ingredients in a spice grinder until well combined and all pieces are uniform (the rub will be very fine and tan in color).
Step 2
Extra rub can be stored in an airtight container for up to six months.
The great thing about barbecue rubs is that everyone eventually makes their own adaptation of their favorite rub recipe. If you don't "cotton" to a specific spice, leave it out; if you like it hotter, add more pepper or cayenne, and if you think something's lacking, add that too. Just make sure to watch the salt content as you are mixing, many prepared spices include salt and it adds up quickly!

Back to TopAmazing! Touch of heat, but mild hit of sweet made this into a recipe to save! Oh the possibilities, chicken /fish etc , thankfully the recipe makes enough for many uses! Thank you!

Excellent! Forgot to marinate country ribs. Rubbed it on. Put it over indirect heat on the grill and cooked... Well, turned off grill after about ten minutes and ran to the ER. Five hours later, they were superb. Will try it on chicken thighs, pork chops, London broil, and maybe even try it to grill shrimp!

This was awesome! I made two different kinds of ribs for a Labor Day party, and this was the clear winner. My husband's friends raved, and I think my stock went up! I didn't have onion or celery salt so I used a little more salt, without any problems. Making again this weekend without the cayenne (because guest don't like spicy), but this was great!

Mixed this up last night and ground it all up in our coffee grinder before applying to boneless/skinless chicken breasts. Turned out really really nice. Just enough of a kick without being "spicy."

Just finished dinner ... a five star summer feast! Used this rub on boneless pork ribs ... superb!!!! Only change was dialing down the cayenne a little. Served with "Corn on the Cob with Mint- Feta Butter" ... look it up ... a perfect summer pairing. And ... a cold beer ... :-)
