Here is my version of a BBQ spice rub. Do you know St. Hubert’s chicken here in Quebec? I played around with some recipes that I have from my notes, sources online, and added my own personal spin. The star of this recipe is the smoked paprika. Seriously, get some. If you do not know where to find some, try the spice link from my store.This recipe is easiest as a ratio when you weigh out the ingredients. I will give the grams first, then the measurement.
