How to Make Mustard Paint
In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup yellow mustard, 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon brown sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder until thoroughly combined.
Generously slather the Mustard Paint all over your chosen meat (ribs, pork butt, brisket, or chicken), ensuring complete coverage.
Immediately apply your favorite dry rub over the Mustard Paint. The sauce will act as a binder, helping the rub adhere perfectly.
Place the meat in your smoker or barbecue according to your preferred recipe.
Leftover Mustard Paint will keep beautifully in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 months. Make a big batch and get ready for summer grilling!
