For a simple and classic dalmation rub use equal parts salt and black pepper, then add one or two extra spices. The spices you select will depend on how hot you want your rub. For that added kick a 2:1 ration of chili powder and cumin. Combine the ingredients in a small jar and mix together.

How to use dry rubs?
Rubs are used before grilling to add flavor.
- Simply rub and press the spice mixture onto the meat.
