Not so Rub of the Week
OK, so you have seen the best rubs I have in the arsenal – so I figured it’s time to take it to the next level. The next level of flavor that is. Mops. I don’t have nearly as many mop variations as I did rubs - But, the ones I do have, allow you to baste on the flavor and hopefully take your food to the next level.
Rather than use a “mop” or cloth to baste my meat, I like to baste my meat from a spray bottle. Usually on an hourly basis.
Here is a flavorful mixture that will work wonders on your Que!!
