This rub has been in my arsenal since my first restaurant in Manhattan Beach, CA and still holds up to the test of time. It's fun, sassy and such an amazing compliment to proteins, veggies or whatever it ends up on.
This bold, smoky blend walks the line between sweet and savory with confidence. It starts with a generous hit of smoked paprika, then layers in the subtle sweetness of maple and molasses sugars. A dash of guajillo chile powder and fine-ground Vietnamese black peppercorn brings gentle heat, while oregano and cumin round things out with earthy, herbaceous depth. Fine Atlantic salt ties it all together, making this a rub that works as well on grilled vegetables as it does on ribs, wings, or brisket.
Whether you're smoking, roasting, or searing, this rub is designed to add swagger.
