Neely’s Dry Rub

Sharing is caring!

I love Neely's Dry Rub and I use it on a lot of dishes. Check out how to make this easy bbq rub below.

There is nothing like a delicious and yummy rack of bbq ribs on a plate. I honestly believe what makes them so good is not the BBQ sauce that is used, but the prep that goes on them before any sauce hits the meat.

You see — I am a dry rub and wet rub kind of girl. YES– I use both and I truly believe that is what sets my BBQ ribs apart from everyone else's.

I can't take credit for the dry rub though. I use Neely's version that I found on Food Network. It is SO good. Here is the recipe for Neely's Dry Rub.

How to Make Neely's Dry Rub

I use this spice rub as a dry rub on my oven-baked bbq ribs, but you can also use it on BBQ chicken, nachos, and more. The Neely's use it in everything and it is really a great seasoning for basically anything.

I have even taken some of the dry rubs and mixed it with mayo to create a BBQ mayo and that is definitely delicious with some french fries or piled high on a burger (think BBQ burger with thick dill pickles and bbq mayo –yum).

You can also use this spice to make your very own homemade bbq sauce as well. I like to store my spices in these 16-ounce mason jars.

Yes! Too many pop up ads. More about making money then supplying information.
