Spicing it up!

We recently had some friends get married and it was such a great celebration! Since we have been a little strapped for cash around here, we bought them a small gift of their registry and then tried to be creative with the rest of the gift. I came up with the idea of making some spice rubs since the couple is a big fan of BBQ. So I scoured Food Network for some of their highest rated spice rubs and came up with these: 16 Spice Smoked Chicken, Spiced Popcorn, Memphis Dry Rib Rub and Texas Brisket Rub. I mixed them up, put them in clean baby food jars, labeled them and then topped them with a little fabric and ribbon. I think the final result was pretty cute:

    What an awesome idea! I think they turned out really good. And I’m lovin’ the orange hue – been having a liking to orange lately.

    Very cute idea! And I must add…we’ve done the 16 spice chicken and it is awesome. We have a jar of the spice mixture that we mixed up, and have found that it goes really well on ribs too!

    That’s a fantastic idea! My husband LOVES making his own rubs and sauces – I’ll have to share these links with him. :)
