Ingredients
  

  • 1 Tablespoon Brown Sugar
  • 1 Teaspoon Smoked paprika
  • 1 Tablespoon Mustard seeds
  • 1/4 Teaspoon Salt
  • 1 Teaspoon Black pepper
  • 1 Teaspoon Onion powder
  • 1 Teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 2 Teaspoon Pickling spice

Method
 

  1. Heat a small pan to medium heat
  2. Roast mustard seeds and pickling spice for 1 minute
  3. Transfer them in a grinder and add remaining ingredients in it
  4. Grind them very well and your dry rub for corned beef is ready

Notes

  • It is wise to lightly toast any whole seeds or spices before grinding. Toasting them intensifies the flavors, and allows us to have the perfect seasoning for corned beef.
 
  • You may experiment by adding some other spices to make this blend more rich. For example, Cinnamon, dill seeds, anise seeds, etc.
 
  • Homemade dry rub for corned beef will stay intact for up to 6 months. Store it in a dry, airtight container.
 
  • Be careful while adding salt as corned beef usually contains salt in itself. 
 
  • Don't have the pickling spice ready? Nothing to worry about. Take 1 tablespoon black peppercorns, 1 teaspoon coriander seeds, ½ teaspoon allspice berries, ½ teaspoon cardamom seeds, and 2 bay leaves. Grind them well. Your pickling spice is ready to use.
