A few weeks ago I posted the recipe for Southern Living Smoky-Sweet BBQ Rub.
Dave the Builder bought an English cut roast at the market and suggested we season the roast with the smoky-sweet BBQ rub.
We put the seasoned rub to the Places In The Home taste test, and it scored 5 forks out of 5 forks.
Here’s our grading scale:
Scale of 1-5 Forks
1 fork: Never Again
2 forks: Where are the Antacids?
3 forks: TLC (Tastes Like Chicken?)
4 forks: Will be Cooking This Dish Again!
5 forks: Share Worthy Recipe!!
Working on home decor projects makes it necessary for the dinner menu to be lovin’ from the oven friendly.
Season the chicken, pork, or beef, pop it in the oven, and fuggetaboutit.
This week’s recipe deliciously met those requirements.
