Our favorite fresh herb rub is fantastic with beef tenderloin roasts as well as beef steaks or lamb chops and roasts. It also works well with chicken.

Ingredients:

3 large garlic cloves, minced or chopped fine in food processor

2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped

1 ½ teaspoon freshly ground or coarse sea salt

1 ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper or pepper blend

Fresh, finely grated lemon zest from one lemon

Instructions:

Mix the fresh ingredients in a bowl. If tightly sealed, the rub will keep refrigerated overnight. Rub the meat with oil and then coat with the herb rub 3 to 5 hours before grilling.
