Dry Rubs & Seasonings

Whether you want to make a breakfast sausage recipe or are wondering how to season ground beef, you'll find lots of delicious recipes along with detailed instructions here.

What are dry rubs and seasonings?

Both dry spice rubs and seasonings are blends of different dried spices, herbs and sometimes salt or sugar. Dry rubs are meant to be rubbed onto raw meats and seafoods and add both flavor and texture after cooking. Seasonings can be sprinkled on meats and seafoods as well but are also used to flavor sauces, dressings and more.

(Note that you can also turn a dry rub into a wet rub by using it in combination with a liquid ingredient. For example, you can spread mustard on ribs and then sprinkle the mustard with a dry rub.)

Below you’ll find easy recipes for delicious rubs and seasonings. Some were created with a specific purpose in mind, like this smoked paprika rub for skin-on chicken cuts, this rub for country style ribs or this salmon dry rub.
