Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
2 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground mustard
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon garlic pepper blend
1/2 teaspoon salt
5- to 6-lb bone-in whole turkey breast, thawed if frozen
2 tablespoons firm butter or margarine

  • If using charcoal grill, place drip pan with 1/2 inch water directly under grilling area, and arrange coals around edge of firebox. Heat coals or gas grill for indirect heat.
  • In small bowl, mix all ingredients except turkey and butter. Loosen skin on turkey breast in 4 or 5 places. Cut butter into small slices; place randomly under skin of turkey. Rub chili powder mixture over entire outside of turkey. Insert barbecue meat thermometer so tip is in thickest part of turkey and does not touch bone.

Tips for Using Chili Cumin Rub:

  • Use fresh spices: Ground spices lose their potency over time, so for the best flavor, use freshly ground chili powder and cumin.
  • Adjust the heat level: The amount of chili powder you use will determine the heat level of the rub. If you prefer a milder rub, use less chili powder. If you like it hot, add more.
  • Use a variety of chili peppers: For a more complex flavor, use a combination of different chili peppers, such as ancho, guajillo, and cayenne.
  • Toast the spices: Toasting the spices before grinding them will help to release their flavor and aroma.
  • Experiment with different ingredients: Feel free to add other spices and herbs to the rub, such as garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, or oregano.

Conclusion:

Chili cumin rub is a versatile seasoning that can be used on a variety of meats, vegetables, and even popcorn. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal taste. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy way to add flavor to your food, give chili cumin rub a try.
