Santa Maria Steak Rub
Have you ever made your own rub before? I have bought plenty of seasonings and rubs for our steaks and meats, I have a cabinet full of BBQ rubs! I love steak rubs, they add delicious flavor to your meats. Steak rubs add flavor to whatever meat you are cooking, they are easy to use, and they last a long time. This Santa Maria Rub Recipe is actually curiosity of Certified Angus Beef. So you know it’s good π When I was at the Food Wine Conference in Orlando last May, they were actually there doing a delicious cooking demonstration on grilling steak and when the demonstration was done, we had the opportunity to make our our Santa Maria Steak Rub. So, I thought I would share their Santa Maria Steak Rub recipe with you all as well. I mean, we all deserve a perfectly seasoned steak!
