What is a rub?

• A rub is a mix of various spices, seasonings and flavoring ingredients applied directly to the outside of raw meat, poultry or seafood before cooking. The rub forms a coating on food and is used to provide flavor and develop texture. A great rub can easily transform a plain piece of meat from boring and bland to outstanding and flavorful!
• Rubs can be dry or wet. A dry rub is made of a blend of spices and seasonings, without any wet ingredients; whereas a wet rub includes some type of liquid flavoring ingredients.

Why dry rubs are best?

• While there is nothing wrong with wet rubs, dry rubs have a couple advantages:
• Perfect sear: Dry rubs don't add any additional moisture to the outside of meat. Moisture on the surface of meat needs to evaporate before any sear can develop. Therefore, dry rubs are a faster way to develop a beautifully caramelized crust on a piece of meat.
• Complex flavor: You can still incorporate a liquid element, such as a glaze or BBQ sauce, during the last few minutes of cooking! By layering a dry rub with a wet sauce or glaze you can achieve a more complex flavor – meaning, meat with a well-seasoned, caramelized exterior and a concentrated, saucy finish.
