• 1 teaspoon cumin
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon coriander powder

Recipe

• 1 mix 1/2 cup raw sugar* with 1 tsp each; onion powder, garlic powder, cumin, chili powder, paprika, freshly cracked black pepper, sea salt, and ground coriander seed.
• 2 stir in 1/4 cup of extra virgin olive oil and 1/4 cup sour mash whiskey (i use "jack daniel's").
• 3 rub mixture into meat, cover and marinate overnight.
• 4 grill meat over low/medium coals until done to taste.
• 5 note: a great rub for any thick cut of beef, lamb or chicken! i grill/smoke on the upper rack (unlit side) of my dual burner gas grill, only lighting the burner on the far side which has a small pan filled with hickory chunks nestled in the midst of the briquettes.
• 6 *raw sugar differs from brown sugar despite the cosmetic similarities; raw sugar (unrefined) does not burn and/or caramelize as traditional brown sugar. even the grocers in our small town carry this product.
