They are really easy to prepare, and you can keep them in an airtight jar and have them ready for use at any time. Now in supermarkets the products for preparing American-style barbecues are increasingly popular, but some of them can be prepared safely at home, saving and having even more of them than the packaging on the market!
The Dry Rubs
Barbecue Rubs as they are called in America, are a mix of spices, to season specie foods. In this case, they are spices for meat and chicken designed mainly for cooking on the barbecue / grill, but why not, even on the iron plate or in the oven if necessary. Making them is quite simple, in the end it is just a matter of mixing various spices together, the most complex part we say is balancing the various quantities. The spices for grilled meat that I propose in this article I have prepared and tested in various ways.
The First is a Mix of Spices for Chicken (centre)
It’s a spicy mix, but not too much. Perfect for chicken, turkey, chanterelles, etc. It gives the meat a spicy and sweet taste. The sugar inside caramelizing during cooking will create the typical crunchy crust. Excellent combined with Worcestershire and / or Liquid Smok, a dark liquid that gives food the characteristic flavour of American-style smoking. It’s obtained naturally thanks to the combustion of wood, nothing chemical.
The Second is a Mix of Spices for Meat (left)
A little spicy mix, but with strong notes of cumin and turmeric excellent for seasoning steaks of all kinds, but also roasts and stews.
The Third is BBQ Rub (right)
This Barbecue Rubs mix adapts well to everything. Mixed with minced meat to make tasty burgers, on pork ribs, but also on chicken. During cooking, the aromatic notes of fennel seeds come out. This BBQ rub is rich in sugar so during cooking it will tend to create a dark crust on the meat due to caramelization, so keep an eye on the meat, especially if you cook them in the oven or on the grill.
These Barbecue Rubs, of course, can also be used on other foods, for example on roasted potatoes, fish such salmon etc! All three are great for creating more sauces, for example combining the liquid smok, Worcestershire, the different types of Tabasco, mixed with tomato concentrate and cooked to create an accompanying sauce. Have fun experimenting with different combinations!
