How to Make It

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together all ingredients until evenly combined.
  2. Transfer the spice rub to an airtight glass jar.
  3. Let the flavors meld for at least 1 hour before using (overnight is even better).
  4. Generously rub onto meats, poultry, seafood, or veggies before cooking.
  5. Grill, bake, roast, or sear and enjoy!

Dr. Kesha's Tip: Use extra on the day of cooking for a stronger flavor. Store in a cool, dark place.
