FAVORITE BLACKENED RUB



Favorite Blackened Rub image

I took a rub recipe on here and tweaked it for a while until it it came out how I liked. My goal was to make a rub that I could generously apply to chicken, salmon, or steak that had great flavor and that was not too salty or spicy. This is our standby now and our favorite way to use is is to pat it on both sides of a salmon filet and then cook the salmon on the grill.

Time P1DT10h25m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 pounds very lean beef, visible fat trimmed and cut against the grain into 1/4 inch-thick strips
¾ cup Worcestershire sauce
¾ cup soy sauce
1 ½ tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon liquid smoke, or more to taste
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
¼ teaspoon coriander seeds
¾ cup water, or as needed
¼ teaspoon coriander seeds
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Place beef strips on a solid, level surface. Firmly pound beef with the tenderizing side of a meat mallet until the meat fibers are slightly broken but the strips still hold their shape.
  • Mix Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar, onion powder, garlic powder, black pepper, liquid smoke, cayenne pepper, and coriander seeds in a large bowl until brown sugar has dissolved.
  • Place beef strips into the bowl; add enough water to allow marinade to cover the meat. Stir to incorporate water and submerge the beef in marinade, cover the bowl, and refrigerate for 24 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
  • Remove beef strips from marinade, shake off excess, and lay the strips onto oven-proof racks. Do not overlap the strips.
  • Bake the beef strips in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest strip reads at least 150 degrees F (65 degrees C).
  • Remove strips from oven and place onto racks of a food dehydrator so the strips don't overlap.
  • If desired, sprinkle strips with more coriander seeds and black pepper.
  • Turn on the dehydrator, set machine's temperature for 155 degrees F (70 degrees C), and dry the jerky until leathery, about 9 hours. Rotate the racks from top to bottom every 1 1/2 hours for even drying. A piece of jerky should crack but not break in half when folded. Store in refrigerator.
