Notes

This rub can be stored in an airtight container in a cool, dark place for several months. Label it with the contents and date. While it will keep for longer safely, spices eventually lose their potency and complexity. Discard it if you see any mold or detect off-odors.

To use the rub, shake up the container to make sure all the spices are well-mixed. Work the mixture into the meat about an hour before it goes on the smoker. Save some of the rub to sprinkle on during the smoking process to replace rub lost during turning. Then go ahead and sprinkle a little more into the finished meat after you've pulled it.
