Ingredients
- 3 cups paprika
- 2 cups sugar
- 2 cups garlic powder
- 1 cup salt
- 1 cup onion powder
- 1 cup seasoned salt (recommended: Lowery's)
- 1/2 cup chili powder
- 1/2 cup black pepper
- 1/2 cup Black Magic seasoning, recipe follows
Directions
Blend well, cover and store.
Remember the dry rub is as important to good BBQ as the sauce. When creating a dry rub you want to add seasonings that will add to the complexity of the flavor without being overpowering. Marlowe's BBQ sauce is sweet with subtle fruit undertones; this dry rub is spicy with a late burn. The 2 together combine with the smoke flavor of the meat to create 1 cohesive unit.

Marlowe's Black Magic:
- 2 cups onion powder
- 2 cups garlic powder
- 1 cup cayenne pepper
- 1/2 cup white pepper
- 1/2 cup black pepper
- 1 cup dried thyme
- 1 cup dried oregano
- 2 cups table salt
- 1 cup paprika
- 1 cup ground cumin
Blend well, cover and store.
Black Magic seasoning is an essential part of Southern cuisine and my kitchen is never without it. This seasoning adds extra kick as 1 of the components of Marlowe's BBQ dry rub, but it is also fabulous by itself.
Try spicing up your chicken or fish by adding a liberal amount of this seasoning before grilling or pan-frying.
Yield: 12 cups
