We've got a fun Father's Day gift idea for you today! Rex fell in love with smoking meat when we were in Medical School. It became a hobby for him.
A major stress reliever! Rex is always up for having friends over or randomly dropping "smoked meat" off to friends! He literally bears his testimony to anyone and everyone that will listen......and has converted at least 8 of his friends to this hobby.
Unfortunately, he has done the same with hunting, but the wives are MUCH happier with this extracurricular activity!! He's always asking me to mix up some rubs late at night while he preps the meat, so this year I'm giving us both a gift of rubs that are ready to go!
Follow these simple steps to make that "Father" in your life this fun gift!I used white silhouette vinyl, but use any color you'd like!
Open print file. Cut vinyl to fit design and stick to cutting mat. Send to silhouette. Weed and apply transfer tape.
I found my jars at Hobby Lobby for $1.99 each. I wasn't in love with the gold lids so I sprayed them a greenish gray color.
Clean jars. Place Vinyl. Fill with rubs!
These Rubs are tried and true! Once you try them you'll be hooked! Both recipes will fill a 1 pint jar. The Mt. Dew Chicken rub is Tony Chachere's Creole Seasoning. More about the chicken can be found here!
