The American Heart Association recommends a lower sodium intake than many Americans consume. Using a no-sodium spice blend like our No Sodium BBQ Dry Rub is an excellent way to flavor food without adding salt to your diet.
This blend can work on all kinds of meat, especially for the lower fat meats including lean meats like sirloin or flank steak and also for chicken and fish. Give it a try, this blend is so tasty, you will not even miss the salty flavor.
