Dry Rub

I use Paula Deen's recipe for dry rub. I think it is a solid rub. I haven't felt the need to tinker with it. I will say it is has a little heat from the cayenne, but I like it. If you are sensitive to the heat, you may want to cut back on the cayenne.

Just put all the ingredients in a bowl. I will double, triple the recipe, etc., depending on what size container I will be storing in.

Just stir everything together.

Store in an airtight container. Make a label, and your recipe is handy when it's time to refill!
