Tips:

  • Choose the right garlic powder. Not all garlic powders are created equal. Look for a high-quality powder made from fresh garlic that has been dried and ground into a fine powder.
  • Use fresh black pepper. Freshly ground black pepper has a more intense flavor than pre-ground pepper.
  • Mix the rub together thoroughly. This will help to ensure that the flavors are evenly distributed.
  • Apply the rub to the meat at least 30 minutes before cooking. This will give the flavors time to penetrate the meat.
  • Cook the meat according to the recipe instructions. Overcooking will dry out the meat and make it tough.
  • Let the meat rest before carving. This will help to keep the juices in the meat and make it more tender.

Conclusion:

This garlic pepper rub is a versatile blend of spices that can be used on a variety of meats. It's perfect for grilled, roasted, or pan-fried meats. The rub is also easy to make and can be stored in an airtight container for up to 6 months. So next time you're looking for a way to add some extra flavor to your meat, give this garlic pepper rub a try.
