Big Daddy's Song Of The South Dry Rub

Here is my own dry rub. Not too spicy (to keep Big Mamma happy) and without the clove or allspice (to keep Jeffrey happy). It really is a wonderful compromise between the pepper based, highly spiced rubs and the very sweet ones.

1/4 cup paprika
1/4 cup light brown sugar
1/4 cup onion powder
2 Tablespoons salt
2 teaspoons ground nutmeg
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons ground thyme


Mix thoroughly. Keep stored in cool, dark place until ready to use. Rub the mixture into pork or chicken and place in refrigerator overnight. Grill, bake or smoke the meat as you ordinarily would.
