Seven Spice Dry Rub

By charlotteh371

Makes 1 3/4 cups

This basic dry rub is delicious on all types of foods, including chicken, although you can add more chili powder and black pepper when using it on heartier meats like beef and lamb. Since the mixture is versatile and keeps well, buy the ground spices in bulk and premix an extra batch to keep on hand.

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup dark brown sugar
• 1/2 cup sweet paprika
• 1/4 cup kosher salt

• 1/4 cup dry mustard

• 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
