Dads Rib Rub Recipes

DAD'S STEAK RUB

Steps:

• Preheat the grill for high heat.
• Place the steaks in a bowl, and drizzle on both sides with maple syrup. Rub with garlic, seasoned salt, and pepper.
• Lightly oil the grill grate. Place steaks on the grill, and cook 7 minutes per side, or to desired doneness.

RIB RUB RECIPE

Steps:

• Take out a large mixing bowl and add into it all of the aforementioned ingredients.
• Use a bowl large enough that the ingredients only take up about one-third of the vessel, as this will give you adequate space to thoroughly mix the blend without spilling ingredients over the edge.
• Using a high-quality metal whisk, thoroughly mix all of the ingredients together until all of the rub blend ingredients are evenly dispersed.
• Don't solely rely on a vision based assessment of the blend to ensure that it is thoroughly mixed, rather dip your little finger into it and do one or several taste tests to evaluate it.
• This is the most important step in creating a master rub blend, so blend the ingredients together as best as you can.
• Store your mixed rib rub blend in glass mason jars with airtight lids.
• When filling these glass jars with your blend, always make sure to leave at least a third to a quarter of empty space at the top of the jar.
• This will give you enough space needed to manually shake the blend up in the event that the ingredients have settled.
• If you do not plan to use your rib rub right away then be sure to store it in a dark and cool place, which will preserve the flavor integrity of your ingredients.
• Exposing your rib rub ingredients to heat or direct sunlight can significantly age the ingredients and reduce the flavor of your overall blend.
• If you plan to apply your rib rub blend to your ​rack of ribs immediately, then be sure to keep your mason jar away from your BBQ, grill, or any other sources of heat or moisture.
• We strongly recommend that you pour the needed rub amount into a separate bowl, then place the mason jar back into a cool dark place.
• It is better to draw the rub ingredients from a bowl then direct from your mason jar, otherwise, you can ruin your blend by exposing it to moisture or the elements.
