Owensboro Mutton Barbecue Rub

By Derrick Riches, About.com

This rub can be used on Kentucky-style barbecued lamb. You can add the Worcestershire sauce directly to the meat to help hold the rub in place.

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup black pepper (freshly ground is best)
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons kosher salt
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1/2 teaspoon allspice
  • 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce

Preparation:

Combine all ingredients except the Worcestershire sauce and store in an airtight container. This is enough rub for a 12 pound mutton roast. It's best to apply the night before you cook. Before you put the rub on the meat, coat it with the Worcestershire sauce first to hold the rub on good. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate until it's time to go in the smoker.
