Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1.5 tablespoons paprika
• 1 tablespoon garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 2 teaspoons kosher salt
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
• 0.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano

Directions

Step 1

In a small mixing bowl, combine brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, ground black pepper, kosher salt, chili powder, ground cumin, cayenne pepper, dried thyme, and dried oregano.

Step 2

Mix thoroughly using a whisk or fork to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed.

Step 3

Choose your preferred meat: pork, chicken, or beef. Pat the meat dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture.

Step 4

Liberally apply the rub to the entire surface of the meat. Use your hands to massage the rub into the meat, ensuring even coverage on all sides.

Step 5

For best results, let the seasoned meat rest in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or up to 24 hours, to allow the flavors to penetrate.

Step 6

Cook the meat as desired: grill, roast, smoke, or pan-sear until it reaches the appropriate internal temperature for your chosen protein.

Step 7

Let the cooked meat rest for a few minutes before serving to retain its juices and enhance flavor.
