Description
This Kansas City BBQ Dry Rub is so easy to make and tastes amazing on everything. Use it for pork, chicken, beef, sausage, or even fish. It's sweet, salty, and smokey, with just a hint of spice.
Ingredients
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons smoked paprika
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon mustard powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cayenne
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Combine brown sugar, smoked paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, mustard powder, ground cayenne, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl.
- Store in a jar or small air-tight container for up to a year. Use on beef, pork, chicken, turkey, sausage, fish, or veggies.
Notes
We use brown sugar to make this rub sweet (it also caramelizes super well). If you want to use something more natural (or make this recipe Paleo-compliant), you can use coconut sugar instead.
Smoked paprika adds a smokey flavor to this rub, but if you don't have it, you can use regular paprika.
This recipe makes enough to cover a 7-9 pound bone-in pork butt.
Store in a jar or air-tight container for up to a year.
