not the local message parlor :P



Anyone know where to get some good spice rubs? I made a gallon 2 years back and am finally out and am to lazy to make another batch

 

message parlor ?

So what the hell are goodmeat rubs ??

 

.... poultry
for ribs, pork chops, steaks etc.....


depends.. I prefer wet sauces.. but most rubs are dry...
I am always inclined to make my own... lots of garlic, hot sauce, paprika, honey, parsley, salt, fresh black pepper... more garlic (what can i say, i am italian).. throw it into the food processor and grind the living hell out of it... marinate the poultry in it for up to 8 hours and use the rest of the sauce in the container to brush on the meat while BBQ'ing.

I would try the food network website... i am sure you can find one to your liking... and i am sure Al Roker has some decent ones online.

the key is to find what you like...I like the spice/bite, but I like the sweetness as well.


did you not post one for BBQ wings before?..if you like that, stick with it.. I know it gets boring but just change an ingredient up... BAM!

 

I think he means seasonings to run on the meat.

 

 

All i know is, if anyone ever wants to rub some meat, PM me for my address.

 

I use all the time a thing called Pappy's

it is the best shit on tri tip

 

It should probably vary by type of meat you are using, something that compliments pork well may not do the same for beef. Experiment with flavors you like and see how it turns out, come up with your special blend and use it, make everyone wonder.

 

You're such a funny bastard

 

 

But but, what if i'm really looking for good meat rub places in Koreatown la?

 

the ones with "happy surprise" i hope

 

Start with Adobo & add some extras(sugar, pepper, ground spices, etc).

 

@ berner

 

Oh sh*t ahahahahahah
That's the first thing that came to mind when I read the title.

 

You can order online from a local bbq joint out in teh sticks of Austin, Driftwood realy, called The Salt Lick . The best BBQ in Central Texas.

Their saying is " You can smell our pits from miles away!"

 

As I said, I usually make my own every year about this time. Usually make a couple gallons and give it away as xmas presents. I'm just to lazy this year, and there are no local places where I can buy lbs of good seasoning with out having to drive an hour or so


I'm looking for a dry rub

 

Smitty, i'll post up my old rub mix, it was quite taste, sweet yet hot

 

I like Stubbs

 

stubbs is good, but I can't find it in bulk, I grill like 6 nights a week and need a large amount of whatever i'mg onna get. Stubbs doesn't have enough heat either.

 

I make my own rubs. Basic recipe is salt, sugar, pepper, paprika, and then depending on what flavor you want, add chili powder, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, ground mustard, herbs like thyme, sage, etc.

I tend to keep it simple for the grill, and then add sauce later for more flavor. For long BBQ sessions I'll also wet mop during the process. For BBQ I prefer dry rubs over the wet pastes.

You need the BBQ bible. There's lots of dry rub and wet rub (pastes) here.

Fine fuckers, you are making me make my own



Slimey, i'll probably put together a few pounds of this rub as the people I gave it to last xmas are begging for it. Wanna do a trade



I've got the BBQ bible, but I don't think it's that one, I'll have to check out the book case again

 

Buy the gigantic bottles of dry spices from Costco for your rub stuff. Although spice enthisiasts will say that you should grind your own stuff, it ain't worth it for the volume needed in a rub. Also, use kosher or sea salt. It needs to be a bit coase. Don't use iodized mortons salt for a rub.

I only make enough for a few appications at a time. I find that rubs get a little 'old' tasting after a while -- not really rancid, but not as flavorful either. I think the sugar oxidizes or the whole thing takes on some moisture or something, even if I store in a zip lock baggie.

 

Try Penzey's spices - they have really good quality spices and rubs and are way cheaper than most others in stores, even after shipping. www.penzeys.com

 

the big bottles at costco won't be enough. I ended up buy 2 lbs of each spice I need last year There are a few places out here that grind their own stuff, i'm probably gonna make the 2 hour drive to them.

I still have some left, they are in air tight mason jars, think the spices are still good?

 

Nice source!

 

Mason jars are the best for spice storage(unless you invest in a Foodsaver vacuum packer).

I think they make nice containers for the rub too. They make a smaller Mason Jar, like for the little jam batches, etc that are decorative. That'd make a great Xmas gift Scott.

 

Smell and taste them and see. I think it really is the sugar that made the stuff go bad, not the other spices.

Mason jars sound better for storage then ziplock bags!

 

guys,
I just called a distributor in Baltimore I used to deal with when I was in the pizza business. He says he can ship bulk spices to my door. I'm faxing him a list off their website to check out his prices.

We'll see how they fair. I know their stuff is high quality & they carry several imported/specialty items.

I'll post back soon.

 

I've got more empy mason jars then I know what to do with, I keep EVERYTHING in them!

 

Good stuff, and you can get it at almost any store!!

 

yea, that stuff is decent

 

Save me some rub....

I'll be down first week of December

 

bring me some smokes!

 

sooooo salty though.

 

Not to pimp out Penzey's too hard, but they have a Chicago steak rub that is not as spicey as the Montreal version. It has a slightly different flavor, like they left out some peppers or onion.

 

big to that

 

It's cuz salt is cheaper than the other stuff
