Roxy's Cajan Rub??

Hoochie-Que · Posted: Nov 18 2006 Post subject: Roxy's Cajan Rub??

Hey, Roxy...

Am studying your cajan turkey recipe... In it you mention (along with a few of your other recipes) a "cajan rub" you use.... Yet I can't seem to find a recipe for this "cajan rub"... I know from enough of your posts that you generally don't use "store bought" rub, either...

Is your "cajan rub" a secret? Or can/will you share it with us?

Thanks!! Cool

I tried Roxy's Cajun Turkey and PM'd him about the "Cajun Rub". He wrote back and gave me the recipe. Here it is.

Roxy�s Cajun rub

2 1/2 tbsp Paprika
2 tbsp Garlic powder
1 1/2 tbsp. Kosher Salt
1 1/2 tbsp. Black pepper
1 tbsp. Onion powder
1 tbsp. ground Oregano
1/2 tbsp. ground Thyme
1 tbsp. ground coriander
1 tbsp Cayenne pepper

Mix ingredients together well and keep in a dry place.

Thanks, Skybob!!

How did your "Cajan turkey" turn out for you, if you don't mind me asking? Any of Roxy's recipes I have tried have always been pretty darn good (Alien's, too, for that matter!)...

Thanks again... Cool

Yes I have and it still is good stand by for when I am out of my rib rub and don't feel like making it.

If you like more heat to it just up the cayenne pepper to 1 1/2 tbsp or 2 if your feeling brave.. Laughing

Roxy or anyone else,

What would you use for wood? I'm doing two turkey breasts, one that will have a dry rub and will be basted with butter and maple syrup, but I'm using 1 chunk of apple and 1 chunk of maple. Would these wood chunks work with your cajun rub as well?

Roxy you have no idea how happy I was to come across this rub! I'm not big into using prepackaged rubs and I have never been disappointed with any of your recipes, so it's a win win!!
