Yield: ½ cup (or 8 tablespoons) Recommended cuts: Beef brisket (8 hours to overnight), flank steak (6 to 8 hours);l pork ribs (8 hours to overnight). Author's note: The secret ingredient here is the dried wild mushroom, which lends it a savory muskiness.

The dried chipotles add hints of smoke, along with the heat. Use as a dry rub for beef brisket or beef or pork ribs. Source: Marinades by Jim Tarantino
