A Quick Rub(not dirty)
During the summer grilling seems to happen so spontaneously. Sometimes it’s just too damn hot to cook inside, other times you find something on sale in the 30% off bin that you know you should cook right away.
But a lot of rubs and sauces that are really tasty are a pain to make on the fly. They have picky ingredients or need 24 hours to let the flavors age. Fuck all that, I want my dollar ninety-nine pork chops now. Which is why I have this simple little rub recipe handy:
- 3 TBS Hungarian paprika
- 1 TBS Kosher salt
- 1 TBS black pepper
- 1 TSP sugar
- 1 TSP chili powder
- 1/2 TSP ground cayenne
- 1/2 TSP garlic powder
- 1/2 TSP onion powder
Those are ingredients I always have ready, it is zero fuss and it works on any meat out there. Chicken to ribs to pork chops(the amounts here are for 4 pork chops, scale accordingly).
Because grilling should be spontaneous.
