Рецепт Grilling Rubs (in a cool gift box)
My point is, I have no idea where these rubs originated. If you recognize any, please, please, please comment below and tell me the origins. I only have a single lead that one of these is from The Mansion, but I just perused their menus and I saw no BBQ in sight. :)

- Ah, how I miss visiting New Mexico. On our last trip, we just made two quick stops in Albequrque, one coming and one going. It was very hard for us not to turn north off of I-40 at Cline’s Corner to head to Santa Fe.
- New Mexico Green Chili Rub

- 1/2 c. dark brown sugar
- 1 T. granulated garlic
- 2 t. fine sea salt

- I definitely wanted to try out a rub made from our own smoked jalapenos. And, please note, I have given credit where credit is due here.
- Chipotle Dry Rub
- from Old World Garden Farms
- 2 t. sweet paprika
- 1 t. onion powder
- 1 t. garlic powder
- 1 t. ground coriander
- 1 t. ground cumin
- 1 t. fine sea salt
- 1 t. freshly ground black pepper
There is a great baked chipotle hot wing recipe that uses this rub here.
*For recipes that include dried herbs or brown sugar, I throw the ingredients in a blender to incorporate fully. Any other time, I just use a whisk to mix the ingredients.
This is a set of “Flavors of America Salt Collection” from Uncommon Goods. (I love that catalog.)
Don’t you think this would make a great gift. I would love to have time to make a block of wood for these glass tubes and put in a whole set of homemade spice concoctions. Maybe next year….
But, this year the B-i-L is getting a set of recycled beer yeast vials filled with the spices above plus some garam masala. (He is also getting some Spicy Herb Salt but I had to put that in another container—ran out of vials).
Re-purposed yeast vials for spices.
I am continuing the recycling theme and putting his spices in a cigar box.
Re-purposed cigar box for a spice holder and gift box.
Aside: Did you know that you can buy cigar boxes cheap (usually $2-$3) at cigar stores? Just do a Pinterest search. You can recycle them into all sorts of cool things.
Currently, The Hubs is making CBGs (Cigar Box Guitars).
The guitar the 7-year-old made with his Unc. How appropriate.
He, the B-i-L and the two nephews whipped out two guitars over Thanksgiving.
Here is the box of the 12-year-old’s project. Really, we didn’t plan this. It was a happy accident that we had “Aged 7 Years” and “Aged 12 Years” boxes for this project.
Hope this post left you with at least one gift-giving idea today because it is only FIVE days until Christmas. (Good grief, Charlie Brown.)
If you have never heard this bluesy tramp-art musical instrument, please click on the link below. You will be amazed. (And, you can make these for about fifteen bucks.)
Only five more days left!
