Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon cumin
  • 1 tablespoon smoked paprika Note 1
  • 1 tablespoon sweet paprika
  • 1 tablespoon fine sea salt or kosher salt
  • ½ tablespoon onion powder
  • ½ tablespoon black pepper
  • 2 teaspoons oregano
  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper or to taste
  • ¼ teaspoon allspice

Instructions

  • Gather and measure all the spices into a medium bowl.
    2 tablespoon brown sugar + 2 tablespoon garlic powder + + 1Tbsp cumin + 1 tablespoon smoked paprika + 1 tablespoon sweet paprika + 1 tablespoon fine sea salt + ½ tablespoon onion powder + ½ tablespoon black pepper + 2 teaspoon oregano + ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper + ¼ teaspoon allspice
  • Mix all the spices together with a spoon or whisk until they are well combined. Make sure there are no clumps or pockets of individual spices.
  • Transfer to an airtight container (glass jar, sealable plastic bag, or a small food container).
  • Store the dry rub in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Notes

  1. I use sweet smoked paprika. If you choose hot, use it to taste, one tablespoon would probably be too much.
  2. Storage: In an airtight container and in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. If stored properly, the dry rub will be fine for 4-6 months. After that, the flavor might start to diminish.
  3. The country-style ribs dry rub recipe makes about ¾ cup/ 3.5 oz/ 100 g of seasoning. You will need about ⅓ of it for rubbing 2 lbs/ 1 kg of country-style pork ribs.
