Whole Lotta Rub
There are times when we barbecue dudes need a whole lotta good rub that's
fresh, good, and inexpensive. I developed this recipe last fall for a welcome
home cook for our local Army National Guard troops. It was well-received
then, so last week when I needed a bunch of rub to cater the meat for a
friend's wedding I was glad that I had documented the recipe.
This is a great all-purpose rub that is very economical. It's essentially a bulk
version of my Memphis-style BBQ Dry Rub. All of the ingredients can be had
in the bulk foods section of any good supermarket. The recipe makes 14
pounds of rub, and it cost me just under $20, minus the food-safe bucket
and lid.
Ingredients
6 lbs Sea salt, medium coarse
2 lbs Evaporated cane sugar
3 lbs Brown sugar
1/2 lb Paprika
1/2 lb Chili powder, medium heat
1/2 lb Granulated onion (not "powder")
1/2 lb Ground mustard
1/4 lb Granulated garlic (not "powder")
1/8 lb Black pepper
1/8 lb Celery seed
1/8 lb Ground ginger
1/16 lb Ground chipotle
1/16 lb Coriander
Note: You'll need a large food-safe and airtight container and some means
of mixing the ingredients very well.
Method
Combine all of the ingredients in a food-safe bucket or other large container.
Mix the ingredients very well until they are all fully incorporated. I used my
cordless drill fitted with a brand new (and washed) $6 paint mixer from Home Depot.
Seal the container and store the rub in a cool and dark place.
How easy is that?!
