Add a Dry Rub to Your Grilling Repertoire

In Texas, I hear the most popular way to prepare meat for grilling is with a dry rub. Since I don’t hail from the Lonestar State, I hope you will forgive me for not coming by this sooner. But, my new favorite way to grill is with a mixture of spices that I rub into meat just before placing it over the flame. This mixture is known as a “dry rub,” and in this post I’m going to share my favorite dry rub recipe along with a video that shows you how to make it.
