Dry Spice Rub

Dry Spice Rub

A great rub for steak, chicken or ribs.

1 tablespoon smoked paprika
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon ground ancho or other chili powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1tablespoon brown sugar
2 tablespoons salt

Combine all ingredients in a spice mill and grind until fine.  Store any left over in an airtight jar until ready to use.

When using the rub be sure to use a clean spoon and sprinkle your rub onto your meat ensuring that the meat or chicken never comes in contact with the spice mix.  That's called cross-contamination and it can make you very, very sick.
