Spicy Meat Rub - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 tablespoons dried thyme
2 tablespoons fresh coarse ground black pepper
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon Hungarian paprika
1 tablespoon garlic powder

Preparation

Mix ingredients together.
Store spice mix in a glass jar in a cool, dark place for up to 4 months (begins to lose flavor after 4th month).
Shake over food liberally in the last 5 minutes of cooking time. This ensures the spices have time to heat-activate but don't break down.
