Latin Inspired Pork Rub Recipe.

Here is a recipe I came up with just yesterday for grilling. We used a boneless Boston Butt and we used some apple-wood chips but you can just use what ever you wish or have on hand. We smoked ours for about 3 hrs roughly and it was well cooked, juicy but with a lovely bark on it. I hope you like it! :)

Recipe for the rub:

2 tbsp of Paprika
1 tbsp of Salt
2 tsp Parsley (dried & fine)
1 tsp Garlic Powder
1/2 tsp Ground Pepper
1/2 tsp Cumin
1/2 tsp Celery Salt
1/2 tsp Mustard Powder (I Used Colmans)
1/2 tsp Crushed Red Pepper
Juice from 1 Lime
Handful of Cilantro Chopped
Olive Oil (I used about 2 tbsp)

Just Mix the ingredients together and rub on the meat. Let it sit for at least 30 mins and cook!

Paleo Recipe: Spicy Cilantro, Lime & Paprika Chicken Thighs

This chicken recipe is not only delicious, but Whole30 & Paleo friendly. It's also a quick but flavorful meal to prepare during the week. You can either grill these or bake them in the oven. I have tried both and they came out great either way. You will need: 1 pack of Chicken Thighs Bone in & skin on (usually 4) 1 tbsp Paprika 2 tsp Garlic Powder 1 tsp of dried Parsley 1 tsp of Salt 1 tbsp of Cilantro (I used pureed) Juice & zest from a Lime 1/2 tsp Cayenne Pepper 1/2 tsp of ground Pepper 1 tbsp of olive oil Preheat oven at 400F if you are going to be baking it straight away (if you are going to let it sit, hold off on that).
