No Salt Chicken Rub Recipe

August 31, 2018, 07:17 AM

I'm using Memphis Dust on my ribs this weekend and want to use something different on my smoked chicken parts. I will dry brine the chicken and am looking for a good no salt rub recipe. Any ideas?

What kind of flavor profile are you looking for? Lots of folks here like simon and Garfunkel rub that you make without salt...

I thought about that one, but I'm looking for a little more spice.

My rib rub can easily be made without salt and it's great (if I do say so myself) on chicken.

Pick a rub you like and add a little cayenne and black pepper to the rub (more cayenne than black). You will have to experiment to get the right amount of heat that you want. The amount of heat is of course a personal choice!

The newer Adams Cajon seasoning is good with a nice kick. The older variety that I still have some of is almost a dead ringer for Old Bay.
