Not sure if I should use one for both, but any suggestions are appreciated. Not opposed to mixing it myself if you've got a good recipe/tips. TIA.

probably a dumb question, but do you put anything (butter, oil) on the chicken/beef before you apply the rub?

This stuff is incredible on poultry, probably just as good on beef.

This is the food and drink board. We make all of our rubs from herbs and spices we grow in our garden.

Seriously though, when I roast a chicken or grill a good quality steak I use salt. That's it. Salt.

Now I will use some McCormick's Montreal Steak seasoning for a sirloin every now and then.

I don't oil my chicken (remember I am talking whole chicken) or steaks before cooking them. I add salt and put on the heat.

That isn't a dumb question at all. Lots of folks oil their chicken or steaks before grilling. I do not.

I like Bad Byron's Butt Rub. A lot less salt than many other brands and the heat is more mild than Tony's or Slap Ya Mama making it more versatile, IMO.

for pork no doubt. I really like to use it on chicken. have yet to rub beef with it but my uncle uses it on his brisket and it's great.

thanks guys, I appreciate all the suggestions.

As for using sugar, I read that it caramelizes. Is this a bad thing? I'm asking cause I usually just grill steaks or yard bird with lemon pepper/salt, pepper. I'm trying to "broaden my horizons" so to speak but dont want to ruin a ribeye or waste a lot of chicken in the process.

I wouldn't put sugar on a steak or on chicken. I'd use brown sugar if I was smoking a butt or a brisket .. but yeah, not in this case.

No never ever ever. #1 rule of dry rub is no SWEET on beef.

Give me sweet on pork and chicken all day long, but again no sweet ever on beef.
