Best Roast Beef Rub

If you know anything about me, you know how much I love a good pot roast recipe. They are a staple in my household! But, what makes a pot roast recipe truly stand out above the rest is the perfect pot roast seasoning. While they were growing up, my kids must have enjoyed a pot roast nearly every other week. I loved being able to set a pot roast to cook at the start of the day, then have it ready for dinner by the time they got home from school or football practice. Of course, it isn’t like me to stick with just one seasoning recipe… so I experimented with different roast beef seasoning recipes every time I made one! This result is one of my personal favorites. It’s sweet, salty, and so delicious with all kinds of beef roasts. Give this easy roast beef rub a try for your next pot roast recipe or beef tenderloin, and I know you will love it as much as my family does. This rub can take a weeknight beef roast dinner and make it restaurant-quality!

How to Season Roast Beef

Roast Beef Seasoning Tips

Make sure to use sweet Spanish paprika, not smoked paprika, for best flavor results.Brown sugar typically lasts about 18 months when properly stored, so you can count on your roast beef seasoning lasting at least that long stored in a cool, dry place in an airtight container.If you want, you can leave out the paprika and use a mix of other herbs, such as thyme and oregano. This will produce a more herbaceous sweet flavor.Use approximately 2 Tablespoons of seasoning per pound of beef. This recipe creates a little over 1¼ cup, exactly 22 Tablespoons.
