Chipotle BBQ Rub
This chipotle BBQ rub is a big-batch spice mix for pork, steak, fish and chicken. Smoked chipotle powder and paprika give it a deep red color and a slow, smoky heat, while dark brown sugar adds sweetness and helps with browning on the grill. Dried rosemary, thyme and dehydrated lemon peel add a herbal, citrus edge that most rubs lack. It makes a generous jar to keep on hand.
Instructions
Measure the paprika, salt, chipotle powder, cayenne, dark brown sugar, rosemary, thyme and lemon peel into a large bowl.
Stir everything together with a whisk or fork, pressing out any lumps of brown sugar, until the color is even and no pale streaks of sugar or salt remain.
Spoon the mix into an airtight container and close the lid firmly.
Store it in a cool, dark place, and shake or stir the container before each use so the sugar and herbs are evenly spread.
Use it as a dry rub on pork, steak, fish or chicken.
Make it personal.
