Title: Applying Rub
Post by: prudentsmoker on August 17, 2016, 03:19:45 PM

I am sure you seasoned veterans knew this, but I did not. I was watching BBQ with Franklin and he pointed out that you are better off holding the rub shaker high above the meat. I had good luck at about 12". Just thought I would share.

Yep. It's not just for "show" like you might think watching the fancy chefs "make it rain". There is actually a practical reason for seasoning from high above. The seasoning distributes more evenly. But...once you get more than 12 inches or so, then you are just showing off!

LOL!  Yeah, don't want to look like you're making an air drop when you rub!
