Summer BBQ Rub

I love to use rubs on grilled meat. For me they are great because I get a taste in every bite, they are easy to apply and they don't have to be high in calories or points. Here is one that is easy and quick. I am using it tonight on a pork tenderloin (remember if it is loin it is lean and WW Green). It is also good on chicken, beef or even salmon!

For a rub like this to work best, just roll your protien in it or dust the meat right before you grill it.

1 tsp sugar
1 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp cumin
1/8 tsp ground ginger
1/8 tsp cinnamon
1/8 tsp pepper

Mix the dry ingredients. You may want to spray your meat with a spritz of cooking spray before rolling in the rub.

This adds no extra points to your food!

Hello Chef Kenneth,

Haven't had a summer BBQ rub just yet... But I will be starting WW@work (again...) tomorrow, 7/15/09 @ noon. Can't believe I'm able to look @ your blog from work (no firewall - - BONUS!) Hope you've been doing well. Miss you!

This rub is really good on everything. I have been using it all summer. You can make extra (like chix brst or pork tenderloin) and use on a salad or bring for lunch.

Tell everyone at the hospital I miss them and wish them well!
