HOMEMADE DRY RUB FOR EVERYTHING

This dry rub adds layers of flavor to steaks, chicken, roasted veggies and more. The combo of everyday spices (think smoked paprika, garlic powder, oregano) plays up the savory notes, while a touch of sumac and cayenne provide a bit of acidity and heat. Feel free to double the recipe and store in an airtight container for an all-purpose spice blend to have on hand at any time.

Steps:

Stir together the salt, smoked paprika, pepper, brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, coriander, oregano, sumac and cayenne in a medium bowl until thoroughly combined. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 month.
To use, sprinkle generously on a protein or vegetable of choice (about 1 tablespoon per pound), then cook as desired. This dry rub is best for roasting, grilling, pan searing and baking.

Ingredients

1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon smoked paprika
2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons packed light brown sugar
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons onion powder
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon dried oregano
3/4 teaspoon sumac
1/4 teaspoon cayenne

ALL-PURPOSE DRY RUB

Here is a rub that provides a fast, flavorful coating for barbecue: beef, pork, chicken, lamb, venison. It calls for the process known as indirect grilling, in which you build a fire on one side of your grill and cook on the other, so that the meat is never in direct contact with flame. (If you grill this rub directly, the sugar and spices will burn rather than melt into appetizing darkness.) The recipe is forgiving. You might add granulated onion or garlic powder to it, or omit the coriander if you don't have any. Be careful with the paprika, as there are so many different varieties afoot: if it's smoked, you'll need less, and if it's fiery you may need less cayenne. No cayenne? Use red pepper flakes. Adjust the seasonings to your taste, then apply liberally.
