How to Make Fiery Creole Pepper Rub

  1. In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons paprika, 1 tablespoon cayenne pepper, 1 tablespoon smoked paprika, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper.
  2. Mix thoroughly until all spices are evenly distributed.
  3. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dark place. The rub will deepen in flavor over time.
  4. Generously rub your chosen protein with the spice mix before cooking. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate (longer is better for more intense flavor!).
  5. Cook your protein as desired (grill, bake, fry). Enjoy responsibly!
