How to Make Red River Rub
- Combine all ingredients in a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Pulse until finely ground and evenly mixed. Transfer the rub to an airtight container or shaker.
- Pat your chosen meat (ribs, chicken, pork chops, turkey, or steaks) dry with paper towels. This helps the rub adhere better.
- Generously rub the spice mixture all over the meat, ensuring complete coverage.
- Let the meat marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4-5 hours, or preferably overnight, for maximum flavor penetration.
- Preheat your grill, smoker, or oven to the desired temperature. Cook the meat according to your preferred method and recipe, basting occasionally if desired.
