Ingredients
For the Rub:
- 4 tablespoons garlic powder
- 4 tablespoons dried oregano
- 4 tablespoons paprika
- 4 teaspoons dried rosemary
- 4 tablespoons brown sugar
- salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste, see instructions
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine garlic powder, oregano, paprika, rosemary, and salt and pepper to taste (I like 5 teaspoons salt and about 1 tablespoon pepper). Store in a clean glass jar with a tight-fitting lid until ready to use.
- Rub the mix generously all over the chicken, pork, or turkey and let sit at room temperature for up to 1 hour.
Notes
For spicy grilled chicken rub, add 1/2 teaspoon ground cayenne to start, then taste. Add more if desired.
