Rub for Smoked Meats

 Greetings All,

This has become simply a way for me to be lazy and have easy access to recipes that I use regularly. This is a rub I have used on both whole chickens and pork shoulders and it is wonderful on both. It is a bit spicy, but not over bearing. The recipe makes 4 1/2 cups of rub which is enough for 6 whole chickens or 3 pork butts used generously.

1 cup Brown Sugar

1/4 cup Smoked Paprika

1/2 cup Kosher Salt

1/2 cup Coarse Ground Black Pepper

1/4 cup Cayenne Pepper

1/2 cup Garlic Powder

1/2 cup Onion Powder

1/4 cup Cumin

1/2 cup Chili Powder

1/4 cup dried Oregano
