# 20 Rub For ALL Meats
One of the best Charcoal Grilling tips that everyone should take heed of is 'flavor your meat with a rub'. Doing so will add much more flavor to any cut of meat than anything else you can do. With that said I have dug deep my the recipe box and brought out my Old #20 Meat Rub. This rub goes way back for many generations, to those who were Kings of the BBQ, the Rib, Brisket, Chicken and yes Fish preparers of the old.
I found that this combination of herbs and spices to be not only very tasty but actually goes with all meats. The Old #20 rub is not hot at all. It does put a little zing but more importantly the peppers help to tenderize the meat and give it a complimentary flavor. So rub in some lip smackin' good flavors and enjoy.

To season meats:
Generously cover meats with the CharMaster Ric's Old #20 Rub. Make sure you rub it into the meat real well. Then place your meat in a refrigerated cooler for about 1 hour. Place on grill or smoker and cook to desire temperature.
