How to Use Rubs
Rubs are seasoning mixtures applied to foods to flavour them before grilling. They provide a stronger flavour than marinades because they stick to the surface of the food. Rubs can be either dry or wet.
To Keep in Mind:
- Most rubs should sit on a cut of meat for a minimum of 20 minutes to allow the flavours to go into the meat.
- Rubs containing sugar should only be used when cooking at lower temperatures as the sugar can easily burn.
About Dry Rubs: Dry rubs are mixtures of fresh or dried herbs and ground spices, often with salt, pepper, and sugar. Dry rubs often create a crust on the outer surface of the meat.
About Wet Rubs: Wet rubs are paste-like in consistency. They include ingredients like oil, vinegar, yogurt, or mustard in addition to herbs and spices. The extra moisture helps the rub stick to the meat and helps prevent the meat from drying out.
Although some rubs are best with certain cuts of meat, others can be used for almost anything. Once you've tried a rub once, you can try it with any other cut of meat you think will work.
