Gagliardo's Back Rub Recipe: Makes approximately 3/4 of a cup The really cool thing about the recipe for this "Back Rub" is that you can modify it to your taste and keep the ratios the same. Not everyone likes the same flavors so I designed this rub so that you can experiment with it and find the combination you like best. I have given you a base of ingredients and alternate options and measurements for a rub that you can use on pork bbq, chicken quarters, ribs and even as a seasoning for a nice mixed green salad. Base Ingredients: 1/4 Cup Kosher Salt 1/4 Cup Brown Sugar 1/8 Cup Granulated Garlic 5 Tablespoons Black Pepper-course ground 1 Tablespoon Ground Coriander 1 Teaspoon Cumin Your Options: Add 1 Tablespoon of your choice of "3" of the following spices: Ground Ancho Chili Pepper Ground California Chili Pepper Ground New Mexico Chili Pepper Ground Chipotle Chili Pepper Cayenne Pepper Ground White Pepper Paprika Ground Coffee File Powder Dried Orange Peel Fennel Place all in a mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand up mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. If mixing by hand mix well with a wire ship until all are incorporated. If using a mixer, which I prefer because it allows you to mix for a longer period of time. Mixing the spices together for at least 10 minutes will start to brake down and bring out any oils in the spices to help the rub to be evenly incorporated. Store in an air tight container for up to two weeks.
