About

Fiery and nose-runningly, eye-wateringly aromatic, this is the rub for steaks. Since the recipe calls for a lot of different peppers, you might want to make up one giant batch to avoid having a lot of jars hanging around. Freeze what you won’t use within two weeks; spices will keep frozen nearly forever.
