Barbecue Rub

Barbecue Rub is a savory spice blend used for grilling, roasting, and seasoning meats, vegetables, and barbecue dishes. It usually combines sweet, smoky, salty, and spicy notes to build a bold crust or dry seasoning on the surface of food. Nutritionally, Barbecue Rub is used in small amounts, but per 100 g it provides 11.7 g of fiber and a noticeable amount of vitamin A from its spice ingredients. Like many dry seasoning blends, most of its calories come from carbohydrates rather than fat. Its main health advantage is that it can add a lot of flavor without needing much added fat. The biggest thing to watch is sodium, since barbecue rubs can be quite salty if used generously.
