This is the BBQ rub recipe that NASA used to prepare brisket for the last Space Shuttle mission, STS-135 in July 2011. The original NASA recipe was a formula expressed in percentage of each ingredient used (by weight, similar to a baker's formula). It has been converted to volume measurements for home use. Recipe makes 1 pound = about 2 1/2 cups BBQ rub. Use at least 1 Tbsp of rub per 1 pound of meat. Ingredients:
3/4 cup kosher salt (or 1/2 cup table salt) |
1/2 cup granulated sugar |
1/3 cup brown sugar (lightly packed) |
3 tablespoons chili powder |
3 tablespoons paprika |
2 tablespoons celery salt |
1/2 cup ground oregano |
4 teaspoons white pepper |
1 tablespoon garlic powder |
1 tablespoon ground black pepper |
1 tablespoon cumin |
3/4 teaspoon dry mustard |
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
Directions:
1. Mix well. Store in an airtight container. 2. Use at least 1 Tbsp of rub per 1 pound of meat. 3. Wrap rub coated meat in plastic wrap and allow to marinate in the fridge overnight. |
