Usage tips:

For ribs or brisket: Pat your meat dry. Generously apply about 1–2 tablespoons of rub per pound of meat. Let it rest 15–30 minutes so the flavors adhere, then smoke or grill as preferred.

For vegetables: Toss chopped veggies with a light coat of oil, sprinkle about 1 tablespoon rub per 2-3 cups veggies, then roast or grill until tender and lightly charred.

For fajitas: Season sliced chicken or steak with 1 tablespoon per pound, sauté with onions and bell peppers, finish in warm tortillas for a flavor-packed meal.
