Notes

  • This recipe makes 13 tablespoons of seasoning for ribs. If you’d like to make a double batch of the seasoning, simply click on the 2X button above. The ingredient amounts will automatically update to accommodate the new serving size.
  • I recommend using 1 tablespoon of seasoning per pound of ribs that you’d like to season.
  • The dry rub will stay good, stored in an airtight container in the pantry, for up to 6 months. After that the spice blend will not “go bad” but as spices sit longer, they begin to lose their flavor.
  • I recommend storing the dry rub for ribs in an 8 ounce mason jar. If doubling the recipe, use a pint size or 16 ounce mason jar. I recommend labeling the dry rub with a date and using the seasoning mix within 6 months.
  • To make the dry rub spicy, add 1 tablespoon cayenne pepper to the mix.
  • This recipe is naturally gluten free.
