GREAT AMERICAN STEAK RUB

This recipe comes out of Steven Raichlen's, Barbecue Bible Sauces, Rubs, and Marinades, Bastes, Butters, and Glazes. We enjoy it sprinkled on our burgers and pork chops. Naturally, it rocks on steaks, too.

This rub carries plenty of heat and not a bit of sweetness. Use this rub whenever big flavors are needed and don't use more than you mean to. It's got a kick. The book mentions not to overlook its use on chicken, seafood and great on grilled veggies, too.

makes 1 3/4 cups
1/2 cup coarse salt (kosher or sea)
1/2 cup coarsely ground black pepper
1/4 cup paprika
3 tablespoons pure chili powder
2 tablespoons cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon dried thyme
Stir all the ingredients in a bowl. Store in a large jar, covered, away from heat and light. Like I mentioned already, this rub will keep for several months.
