Instructions

1. Combine all seasonings together in a bowl. Ensure they are evenly mixed to distribute the flavors throughout the rub.

2. Rub the mixture over the meat, ensuring that it’s evenly coated on all sides. This step is crucial for infusing the meat with the savory goodness of the herbs and spices.

3. Cover the meat with plastic wrap or place it in a sealed container, then refrigerate for 24 to 48 hours. This allows the flavors to meld and penetrate the meat, resulting in a more flavorful and succulent roast.

Tips and Tricks

• Adjust seasoning to taste: Feel free to adjust the quantities of the herbs and spices according to your personal preferences. If you prefer a stronger garlic flavor, add more garlic powder. If you’re a fan of thyme, sprinkle in an extra pinch.

• Marinate overnight for best results: While a minimum of 24 hours is recommended for marinating, letting the meat sit in the rub overnight will yield the best results. This extra time allows the flavors to fully develop and permeate the meat, resulting in a more flavorful end product.

• Use on different cuts of meat: While this rub is designed for beef or pork roasts, don’t hesitate to experiment with other cuts of meat as well. It works wonderfully on steaks, chops, and even poultry, adding depth and complexity to any dish.

• Double or triple the recipe for larger roasts: If you’re cooking a larger roast or feeding a crowd, simply double or triple the recipe to ensure you have enough rub to cover the meat generously.

• Store leftover rub in an airtight container: If you have any leftover rub after seasoning your meat, store it in an airtight container or resealable bag for future use. It will keep for several months in a cool, dark place, ready to impart its savory goodness to your next culinary creation.

By following these simple steps and tips, you’ll be well on your way to creating mouthwatering beef or pork roasts that are bursting with flavor. Whether you’re hosting a backyard barbecue or enjoying a cozy family dinner, this savory rub is sure to impress your guests and leave them coming back for seconds. Enjoy! 🍖🌿
