Recipe View To use, generously rub the mixture all over your chicken (or desired protein) before cooking. For beer can chicken, ensure the bird is thoroughly coated inside and out.

For a deeper, smokier flavor, try using smoked paprika instead of sweet paprika.
Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to control the level of heat. Start with less and add more to taste.
This rub also works beautifully as a dry brine. Apply it to your chicken several hours (or even overnight) before cooking for enhanced flavor and moisture.

    I love the balance of flavors in this rub. It's not too sweet, not too spicy, just perfect. I'll definitely be making this again.

    This rub is amazing! My beer can chicken has never tasted so good. I even used it on a pork shoulder and it was a huge hit.

  • Eugenia Cummings

    The instructions are clear and easy to follow. I appreciate the tip about using smoked paprika. It added a really nice depth of flavor.
