Who Makes Their Own Seasonings (Rubs)

[ifitsdeadsmokeit]

I do a combination of making my own and store bought. I like the meat church brand and yardbird. My go to that I make is good on poultry and pork. I also have a beef rub I like to make that is more pepper heavy. Like to mix it up to keep things interesting.

I have that book. It is a great book. I forgot about it and time to bring back out.

Yes, there are some excellent, timeless recipes and methods in that book. It was one of my first outdoor cooking and smoking books.

I have made some myself but also enjoy some commercial rubs that have been mentioned. I'm always on the hunt for a BOGO or closeout when I shop.
Found this one 2 weeks ago at WM and loaded up


Great price and will use as a starting point for mixing my own blends.
Also found this one this week for .50 so grabbed several bottles

Tried it last night and it was pretty good.

I made Jeff's a bunch. I like to just buy rubs. Meat Church is used the most,

Meathead’s Memphis Dust is the best pork rub I’ve had! It’s a great base to start with. I add jalapeño powder when I want to kick it up a notch.

If I like a recipe that calls for a specific commercial rub, I’ll try to reverse engineer it using the ingredients on the label, forgoing all of the chemical preservative garbage. Controlling salt content and eliminating preservatives are great reasons to make your own rubs. They also make great gifts. Get a nice shaker and fill it full of a homemade rub - who wouldn’t love unwrapping that?!

+1 on the Memphis Dust! One of the things I really like about it is that it's salt free. I like to dry brine or pre salt a for a lot of cooks so, outside of my SPOG and a couple others, all of my rubs are salt free.
