Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 stick Salted butter softened
  • 2 Tablespoons Garlic powder
  • 1 Tablespoon Fresh rosemary
  • 1 Tablespoon Fresh thyme
  • 1 Tablespoon Black pepper

Instructions

  • Soften the butter on the counter or by setting it under a hot glass, and chop the herbs. When softened, combine butter, garlic powder, herbs and pepper in a bowl and mix to combine.
    1 stick Salted butter, 2 Tablespoons Garlic powder, 1 Tablespoon Fresh rosemary, 1 Tablespoon Fresh thyme, 1 Tablespoon Black pepper
  • Spread the butter rub over the meat, making sure to cover all sides of the roast.
  • Prepare the roast, and serve! Save any spare rub (that hasn't been in contact with the meat!) for spreading on toast, vegetables, and more!

Notes

  • Fresh herbs are ideal, but if you're in a pinch, dried herbs will work too! Just limit the amount to about half, as dried herbs are more potent and too many can quickly become overpowering.
  • I prefer to use salted butter for a more flavorful rub. If using unsalted butter, add a little salt to the mix.
  • Make extra, and set aside a portion to store. This butter rub is essentially herb butter, and tastes incredible used in all sorts of ways! I like to add a little to the pan before cooking up sandwiches, or add it on top of mashed potatoes.
  • Spare butter can be stored in a container in the fridge or wrapped up into a log shape using plastic wrap.
  • Feel free to mix and match the herbs in this rub. You may prefer more thyme, more rosemary, or a mix of sage!
