Sugar Free Pork Rub Recipe
Description
The Sugar Free Pork Rub combines several spices including smoked paprika, kosher salt, pepper, garlic and onion powders, oregano, mustard powder, cumin, and sage. Whisked together, this blend provides a balanced seasoning that highlights pork's natural flavor without any sugar or sweetness. The smoked paprika adds a gentle smoky note that can be substituted with regular paprika for a milder taste. Mixing the spices thoroughly ensures even distribution on pork cuts.
This rub is flexible and can be stored in an airtight container, such as a small mason jar, keeping the blend fresh for up to six months if spices are fresh at the outset. Freshness of spices is important for optimal flavor, so replacing old spices will improve the rub's impact. It works well on various pork preparations including shoulder, ribs, and roasts.
Ingredients
- 1 Tablespoon smoked paprika
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt

Notes
