lynn's sw dry rub

San Angelo, TX
Updated on Apr 24, 2013

It's super simple, but it has produced the BEST grilled and smoked pork chop, rib and pork steak I have ever eaten. Note: Different brands of Cumin have different strengths, if the one you use makes the rub too strong, just add more of the other ingredients to off set the bitter flavor.

How To Make lynn's sw dry rub

  • Step 1
    FOR INDIVIDUAL INGREDIENTS: Mix dry ingredients together, then add brown sugar and mix well.
  • Step 2
    FOR PINTO BEAN SEASON RUB: You can make as much or little as you like. Simply mix equal parts of Pinto bean seasoning and brown sugar. Mix by hand till well blended.
  • Step 3
    I like to rub my pork and leave it in the fridge overnight, but if you don't have that much time, rub it and let sit as long as you can. I sprinkle a little on the pork and rub it in on both sides, it's that simple.
  • Step 4
    Same thing with chicken, rub and leave over night, but even a few hours makes it super yummy.
  • Step 5
    Grill or smoke your pork as you normally would. We normally cook and smoke ours with mesquite.
  • Step 6
    Place any leftover rub in ziploc bag and store in fridge.
