Aussie Roast Rub
It really doesn’t get much more delicious than this, nor more versatile! Ask your farmer's market butcher for their best cut for a beef roast and then use this rub, with fresh garlic, rosemary and lemons from the produce section. You can buy everything you need at the market.
Recipe Tester Feedback: "This is a delicious rub. Easy to make with pantry staples and rosemary from the garden. I think I'll use it every time we have roast beef." - Julia
