Recipe: Jim Goode's Beef Rub

Since Good Co. Bar.B.Q. made USA Today's list of BBQ destinations, I thought I'd share one of their recipes with you. This recipe comes from a great book, Legends of Texas Barbecue Cook Book by Robb Walsh.

Jim Goode's Beef Rub

1/4 cup salt.
2 1/2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons paprika
2 teaspoons dry mustard
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons onion powder
1 1/2 teaspoons dried basil
1 teaspoon ground bay leaves
3/4 teaspoon ground coriander
3/4 teaspoon ground savory
3/4 teaspoon dried thyme
3/4 teapsoon ground black pepper
3/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
1/8 teaspoon ground cumin

Combine all ingredients in a mixing bowl, them put the mixture in a shaker bottle. It will keep in an air tight containter for 3 months. Good stuff, pardon the pun. Thanks to the folks over at Roadfood for the picture of Goode's brisket.

And don't forget that Lynette over at Lex Culinaria is hosting an one time summer barbeque challenge -- "between now and May 13, 2006 cook and write a post about a barbeque dish that you think is special." Lynette is looking to build a "virtual recipe book of fantastic barbeque dishes to inspire our backyard and campground cooking all summer long."
