The starting point for many great BBQ dishes, there’s very little meat that doesn’t benefit from the liberal use of a well flavoured rub. This is a great base recipe to get you started, but you should really try to experiment and find a recipe that you love. The combination of the salt and the sugar starts to cure the meat, exchanging flavours with the moisture at the surface, and creating that wonderful BBQ ‘bark’ so well loved by BBQ aficionados.
As with all spices, once mixed you should store them in a cool dark place.
