Jazz Up Your BBQ With Our Suya Spice Dry Rub

How about we jazz up our BBQ this holiday weekend with my African suya dry rub?! 😋😋😋

Suya spice is used to make a spicy meat skewer which is a popular food item in West and Central Africa.

Suya is generally made with skewered beef, ram, or chicken, kidney, liver, and tripe are also used. The meat is thinly sliced and marinated in spices ground roasted peanut, salt, onion powder, ginger powder, garlic powder, stock cube, salt, black and white pepper, chili powder, and vegetable oil, and then barbecued.

Suya is served with extra helpings of dried pepper mixed with spices and sliced onions.

FYI *** If you have any nut allergies, I suggest you skip the peanut entirely and use the spices without the peanut.

I used my homemade Suya dry rub recipe to marinate my beef and lamb skewers and my chicken.

2 cups salted peanuts

1 tablespoon paprika

2 teaspoons onion powder
