- 1 tablespoon salt
- 1 tablespoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all the ingredients needed for Janet's Copycat Texas Roadhouse Steak Rub. You will need 1 tablespoon of paprika, 1 tablespoon of salt, 1 tablespoon of black pepper, 1 tablespoon of garlic powder, 1 tablespoon of onion powder, and 1 teaspoon of cayenne pepper.
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the paprika, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper. Make sure to measure each ingredient accurately for the best flavor.
- Using a whisk or a fork, mix the ingredients together thoroughly until they are well combined. This will ensure that the flavors are evenly distributed throughout the rub.
- Once the ingredients are mixed, taste a small amount of the rub to adjust the seasoning if necessary. If you prefer a spicier rub, you can add more cayenne pepper to suit your taste.
- After mixing, transfer the steak rub into an airtight container or a spice jar for storage. This rub can be stored in a cool, dry place for up to six months.
- To use the steak rub, generously coat your steak with the mixture before grilling or cooking. Make sure to rub it into the meat for maximum flavor. Allow the steak to sit for at least 15 minutes to let the flavors penetrate before cooking.
Tips
- For the most intense flavor, let the steak sit with the rub for at least 30 minutes before cooking, allowing the spices to fully penetrate the meat.
- Use a mortar and pestle to freshly grind whole spices for an even more robust flavor profile.
- This rub works perfectly not just on steak, but also on chicken, pork, and even roasted vegetables.
- Store your homemade rub in an airtight container in a cool, dark place to maintain maximum potency and flavor.
- For a lower-sodium version, reduce the salt content and consider using kosher salt or sea salt for a more nuanced taste.
- Experiment with the cayenne pepper quantity to adjust the heat level to your personal preference.
