Barbecue Chicken Rub
This barbecue chicken rub is a two minute spice mix that sweet, salty and hot flavors all share a jar. Turbinado or light brown sugar balances a generous amount of cayenne, while dry mustard and lemon pepper add sharpness. Dried rosemary brings a piney note that suits poultry. The batch is large, so you can season several chickens from one jar and keep the rest sealed.
Instructions
Measure each of the seven ingredients into a bowl: the chili powder, salt, mustard powder, lemon pepper, rosemary, sugar and cayenne.
Stir everything together until the color is even and no pockets of sugar or cayenne remain.
Transfer the mix to an airtight container and seal it. Shake the container before each use, since the sugar and spices can settle.
Make it personal.
