Spice rubs are an easy, inexpensive way to add flavour. Rubs keep for months in an airtight container and can be used with steaks, diced meat, minced meat or schnitzel. Rubs can be applied to the meat an hour or up to a day ahead, placed in a resealable plastic bag to marinate and easily transported to the bach or a barbecue. Then just thread onto skewers and grill.
