Categories     Chicken

Yield 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup paprika
1/4 cup kosher salt, finely ground
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons mustard powder
1/4 cup chili powder
1/4 cup ground cumin
2 tablespoons ground black pepper
1/4 cup granulated garlic
2 tablespoons cayenne

Steps:

  • Mix all ingredients and store in a tightly covered container.

Tips:

  • Make sure to use aluminum foil. Foil helps the rub stick to the meat and prevents it from drying out.
  • Let the rub sit on the meat for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight. This will give the flavors time to penetrate the meat.
  • Cook the meat over indirect heat. This will help prevent the rub from burning.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure the meat is cooked to your desired doneness.
  • Let the meat rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat.

Conclusion:

The Magic Dust Barbecue Rub is a versatile and flavorful rub that can be used on a variety of meats. It's perfect for beginners and experienced grillers alike. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious and memorable barbecue experience. So next time you're firing up the grill, give Magic Dust a try. You won't be disappointed!
