Texas Chicken Rub is smoky, savory, and pleasantly bitter, with a mild heat.
Use one Tablespoon of chicken rub per pound of meat. Sprinkle on the chicken and then rub the spice blend into the meat with your hands, evenly coating both sides. Place it in a resealable refrigerator bag and refrigerate for at least four hours and up to 24 hours before cooking. Texas Chicken Rub would make a great substitute when making Roasted Whole Chicken. Swap in Texas Chicken Rub when making Grilled Turkey Burgers and transform them into BBQ burgers. Use it instead of Nashville Hot Chicken seasoning in Baked Nashville Hot Chicken to make delicious crispy oven baked BBQ chicken.
This rub isn't just for grilling; it can also be used in a BBQ smoker, with a rotisserie or for baking in the oven as well as a garnish for potato salad and deviled eggs. Also try mixing it with flour and coating chicken to cook in an air fryer.
