If you want to prepare shoulder pork or spare ribs for the grill but don't want to spend a lot of money on an expensive dry rub, I have a cost-effective and delicious solution for you. With this simple recipe for a homemade rub, you can bring out the full flavor of your grilled meat.

Ingredients:

- 2 tablespoons onion powder

- 1/2 tablespoon garlic powder

- 1 tablespoon salt

- 1/2 tablespoon mixed herbs (marjoram pairs especially well with pork)

- 1/2 tablespoon coarse black pepper

- 1 tablespoon paprika powder (sweet)

- 1/2 tablespoon brown sugar

Instructions:

1. Prepare the spice blend: In a bowl, mix all the above-mentioned spices and herbs. Ensure they are well combined.

2. Prepare the meat: Before placing the meat on the grill, generously rub it with the prepared spice blend. You can marinate the meat one night before grilling for even better results. This allows the spices enough time to penetrate the meat and intensify the flavor.

4. Serve and enjoy: Once the meat is grilled, serve it hot and savor the full flavor of this homemade grill rub.

Tip: You can store the excess spice blend in an airtight container and use it for future grilling adventures. Beautifully packaged, this spice blend also makes an excellent gift for grill enthusiasts!
