HERBED LEMON PEPPER RUB
I used to be La Madeleine's DFW catering chef, and the production kitchen cooked all the rotisserie chicken, and I did really like the rub they used. This is an approximation of their rub, with a few ingredients of my own thrown in. This is enough rub for one roasting chicken.

Tips
- Choose the right peppers: For a smoky flavor, use chipotle peppers. For a sweeter flavor, use paprika. For a more intense heat, use cayenne pepper. You can also use a combination of peppers to create your own unique flavor profile.
- Toast the peppers: Toasting the peppers before grinding them will help to release their flavor and aroma. You can toast them in a pan over medium heat, or in the oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-15 minutes.
- Grind the peppers: Once the peppers are toasted, grind them into a fine powder using a spice grinder or mortar and pestle. This will help to distribute the flavor evenly throughout the rub.
- Add other spices: In addition to peppers, you can also add other spices to your rub, such as garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, or oregano. Experiment with different combinations of spices to create a rub that suits your taste.
- Use the rub on your favorite meats: This rub can be used on a variety of meats, including chicken, beef, pork, and lamb. Simply rub the mixture onto the meat before cooking. You can also use it as a marinade by combining it with olive oil or yogurt.
