Aztec Rub

By , About.com Guide

This wet rub is heavy on the cumin and contains liquid smoke to enhance the smokiness of your barbecue. The olive oil will help to form the spices into a thick paste, which sticks well to any meat.

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup cumin seeds crushed
  • 1 cup olive oil
  • 1/3 cup minced garlic
  • 1/4 cup liquid smoke
  • 3 tablespoon coarse salt
  • 1 tablespoon cayenne pepper

Preparation:

Combine all ingredients, except oil in the bowl of a food processor and process until smooth. Slowly pour oil into the food processor with the motor running until it forms a smooth paste. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use. Makes about 2 cups. This rub can be stored for several days to a couple of weeks in the refrigerator.
