Chile Rub

This rub would work with most cuts of beef and is great on pork chops or tenderloin.

1 tbsp. plus 1 tsp. chili powder
2 tsps. cumin
2 tsps. brown sugar
1 tsp. oregano
1 tsp. salt

In a small bowl, mix all ingredients. Use immediately or store in an airtight jar in a cool, dark place. Lasts up to 6 months.
Yields 10 teaspoons of rub mix.

The brown sugar will caramelize slightly when cooked, which will give foods a sweet glaze, beware of burning, as brown sugar contains a small amount of molasses.
