Directions
-
Bill Ackerman has improved a rub from 'La Parilla'.
-
It is pretty basic--just anchos, chipotles, oregano, garlic and salt.
-
But, boy howdy, is it good!
-
Last night I rubbed pork chops and grilled them.
-
Served with a basic red chile sauce.
-
Pan roast chilies and oregano until fragrant.
-
When cool, grind in spice mill with garlic and salt.
-
I'm not sure of Bill's proportions but this is what I have been using.
-
For the sauce, stem and seed the dried chilies.
-
Toast them in a heavy skillet until fragrant.
-
Grind when cool in a food processor.
-
Add tomatoes, garlic and chipotle.
-
Add enough water to make it pourable.
-
Strain in a food mill.
-
Pour it back in the skillet and heat to bubbling.
-
Salt to taste.
-
Sugar to taste, if necessary.
-
I tried the rub on chicken.
-
Then I started a lump charcoal fire, put the chicken in the cold cooking chamber, threw on heavy apple wood smoke initially and slowly ran the temp up to 350F (177&# 194;°C) over 1.25 hours.
-
The chicken was moist with a crispy skin
