Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Paprika (smoked)
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1.5 tablespoons Kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon Ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cumin
Instructions
In a small mixing bowl, combine the paprika, brown sugar, kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, oregano, thyme, and cumin.
Mix thoroughly to create a uniform dry rub.
Pat your desired protein (such as a whole chicken, pork shoulder, or beef roast) dry with paper towels.
Generously apply the rub to all sides of the protein, making sure to massage it into the surface for maximum flavor infusion.
If time allows, let the seasoned protein rest in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or up to overnight to allow the flavors to develop.
Cook the protein on a rotisserie or grill according to your preferred method until it reaches the appropriate internal temperature for your chosen meat.
Allow the meat to rest for 10–15 minutes after cooking before slicing and serving for the juiciest results.
