We liked this alot, but I think it needed just a bit more kick to it. I used it on a fresh mahi mahi fillet and baked it in the oven. The fish was tender, flavorful and very moist. Nice rub ~ I'll use it again. Thanks for posting AzG ~ made for ZWT6 - NA*ME Region Wild Card Challenge ~ The Mixing Pot II and the Queens of Quisine.

I mixed the rub and brushed onto shrimp kabobs which I then grilled on an indoor grill. I used smoked paprika and maybe shouldn't have done so with the cumin and chili powder. The result was a very smoky taste that overpowered the dish. Thank you for sharing your recipe. I did enjoy trying it and it made a very quick lunch. Made for ZWT6.
