Having a BBQ at home is a fun summer treat for any family. You can make this experience even more fun by serving tasty BBQ with your own very BBQ rub. Here’s how to do it.
Basic types of BBQ rubs
The basic types of BBQ rubs include the all-purpose, the Caribbean, the Kansas City, and the Prime Rib. BBQ rubs are dry. They are the perfect alternative for those who do not want their BBQ to be drenched in sauce. The Caribbean BBQ rub delivers a sweet and spicy flavor, which is why is it also called jerk seasoning. Aside from pork and beef, this rub works just as well on chicken meat. The Prime Rib rub is a wet BBQ rub, which contains olive oil that holds the flavors together and adds a lot of moisture to the meat. If you want to create a rub that is just your own, start with the all-purpose rub. This can be used on almost anything, and you can easily substitute and change the proportions to create your own unique taste.
Tips to create the perfect homemade BBQ rub
Proportion and the amount of heat are essential in making the perfect BBQ rub. The type of wood you use for grilling also affects how tasty your meat turns out. Hickory, maple, apple, and cherry are often the best when it comes to making BBQ. Give the meat ample time to absorb the taste of the rub by applying the rub to the meat three or four hours before grilling time.
BBQ rubs are a great alternative to BBQ sauces. With the right proportion of ingredients, you can create a tasty barbeque with your own BBQ rub.
