Storage Tips:

• Store spices in a screw top container with the lid tightly closed.
• Keep your spices in the pantry away from direct light.
• Storing spices away from heat will help them last longer.
• When you use your spices, use dry measuring spoons. Even the slightest amount of water on a spoon can spoil the contents of the rest of the jar.
• Use fresh spices that aren’t close to their expiration date when mixing up this rub.
• If stored correctly rubs will last about a year.
