"This spice mix is an excellent blend and adds a complex combination of flavors to meats and sauces in a jiffy. It makes a big enough batch that you can keep on hand for jazzing up your meat at the last minute. Use the quantities of each ingredient as a guide to their importance in the mix. The seasoned salt and paprika are the largest quantities of any of the ingredients, so I don't recommend eliminating them. But the small amount of cloves and mace could be eliminated without significantly effecting the taste of the blend, if you don't have them on hand. It's easy to customize this mix to please your palate. This recipe combines spices with dark brown sugar. (The sugar adds flavor, and promotes browning.) It's sweet, savory, and spicy all in one blend. It is great to use on chicken, beef or pork. I use this spice mix when I make my recipe, posted here, for 3 Barbecue Sauce Recipes #recipe18608 PLEASE NOTE: *****For a spicier blend, use hot chili powder (rather than mild) and more cayenne, cumin, or black pepper. ***** For a sweeter blend, increase the allspice, cloves, mace, or brown sugar. ***** For a smokier blend, omit the sweet paprika and substitute all smoked paprika. ***** For a saucier coating on your meat, brush it with barbecue sauce during the last 5-10 minutes of cooking time.

Step by Step Method
Step 1
Spread brown sugar out on a baking sheet for 1-2 hours, so it can dry out and avoid clumping.
Step 2
Combine all ingredients in a food processor, and pulse until well mixed OR sift the ingredients into a bowl, and whisk them until mixed.
Step 3
Store in airtight container.
Step 4
TO USE: Sprinkle dry rub mix on all sides of the meat (chicken, beef, or pork) and rub it in.
Step 5
If you have time, wrap or cover the meat, and refrigerate it for 1 hour (or as long as 12 hours) before cooking. The fridge time will enhance the flavor, but it's also good if you cook the meat right away.
Step 6
Grill, pan fry, or bake the meat according to your preference. Also good for seasoning meat in slow cooker.
