thanks for the recipe Gary, can't wait to try it tomorrow on july 4 ( 2018 )
Sounds great, will give it a try ..Cheers……….
Too much editorial. Hope the rub will have been worth listening to the unnecessarily long video.
hey, how to make bbq seasoning that makes potatoe chips taste like store bought bbq chips?
Is this good for tri tip also as far as sea salt is Morton’s all purpose good?
Is it table spoons or Teaspoons???
Not a lot of fluff and intro sequence!(yay) and he is clear that this is his opinion and his thoughts,..as opposed to those that say "THIS IS THE BEST IN THE WORLD!! Thinking that their opinion is the be all and end all. thank you! going to try it out!
Does it matter if its Sea salt or not?
Can I use this for baked chicken
Thanks for responding
I love that you put your recipe underneath so we can have it for later thank you so much awesome
Very straight forward video, thanks fir sharing.
is this rub good for stove top or oven cooking or only smoking and bbqing?
Gary, so far everything I tried from your channel turned out great, I trust this rub is going to be great, I am going to give it a try and give a feedback on it.
Hi Gary, thanks so much for your recipe…, after all ingredients mix well how much I can marinate for 2 chicken hens.
Thank you! This is a great rub recipe. Tried it this weekend. So much flavor. Love it!
The screen shot of the ingredients calls for 1/2 tsp of paprica. He says 1/2 cup in the video. Which is it?
paparicca
Mine was too salty and over bearing garlic. Dod i do something wrong?
I cold smoked the first batch of rub for about 2 hours. Then let it cool and popped it back into the jar. Apart from adding a great smoky flavour the smoking also seemed to intensify the impact of the paprika to a large degree. Great rub and has now become my go to rub. (I occasionally halve the salt though.) Thanks – great video.
Hi can I substitute celery seed with celery salt? If so how much? also I don't have onion flakes but I do have onion powder. How much should I use of the powder instead of salt?
Thanks!
Can I use Onion powder instead of flakes? and if so, how much?
Get to the meat, buddy. (Pun intended)
I cooked a whole chicken butterflied with this on it last night.
I have used this recipe a few times but I perfected them for the 4th. I adjusted the cayenne pepper and brown sugar a bit for more sweet heat. Everyone was complimenting me on how they loved the ribs (which by the way I cooked slow for a couple of hours over charcoal)
is that 1 tsp of Cellery or Cellery Salt?thanks!
needs cumin and ginger
that is a good all around rub.
I just try it it was so delicious I would recomen it but I just measure for one time but it still was so delicious I try to stay away from cooking because the food comes out better than restaurant and gains me weight Thank you
Excellent rub. Thanks for the post
Hi Gary, thanks a lot for sharing this recipe…, whole jar you make for how many pounds pork rib I need?
hello Gary,
thanks a lot for sharing this recipe. Made it a few days ago and today used it on some chickenwings and a few pieces of porc.
It tasted great, but next batch is going to get bit more cayennepepper.
Had the neighbor try some chicken and porc. I now have only half a jar left. He loved it as well.
So thanks again for sharing.
looks like a simple but good rub, Doug Weaver
