Storing Tips

It is best to store in an airtight glass jar in a cool, dark place away from heat and sunlight. This rub can be placed in the freezer for up to twelve months as well, in a freezer-safe container.

You can store it in a resealable ziplock type bag, though make sure to remove as mush air as possible before sealing.

Make sure you label and date the bag/jar/airtight container so you know how long you have had it as eventually the rub will lose its flavour, becoming bland.

The mixture may slightly harden overtime, especially if using brown sugar. Just shake or stir to loosen to the rub.
