Easy Pork Dry Rub Recipe

We have no shortage of great rubs hanging around in our house. In fact, they’ve taken over several cupboards, and drawers, and also a shelf (or three) in the pantry. Yeah, I have a slight problem. I own it. Sometimes though, I just want something simple and with ingredients that I control, 100%.

This pork rub is the perfect mix of sweet + a little bit of spice. Don’t skip the granulated brown sugar! It helps keep the mix from clumping. If you don’t have any, you can substitute the regular brown sugar, but if so I’d suggest only making as much as you will use in a couple days. You can also dry out your own brown sugar in the oven or microwave, in a pinch!

Pork Dry Rub FAQ

How do you store leftovers?

Store this rub in an airtight container. If you keep it in a shaker, make sure it has a cover.

Are there any substitutions for the granulated brown sugar?

Yup! You can use regular brown sugar, but know that it is much more likely to clump as regular brown sugar contains significant amounts of moisture. You can also use the oven on low temps (120-150°F) or the microwave to dry out your brown sugar before combining in the rub.
