How to make your own Smoky BBQ Dry Rub

Low FODMAP Smoky BBQ Dry Rub

This Low FODMAP Smoky BBQ Dry Rub is similar to its sweet cousin (the Low FODMAP Sweet BBQ Dry Rub), but the proportions are a bit different. So, if you, like me, are more of a smoky-BBQ-lover with less of a sweet tooth, this is the BBQ blend for you.

FODMAP Information

All recipes are based upon Monash University & FODMAP Friendly science at time of initial publication.
Ancho Chile: Monash University has lab tested ancho chiles and they have a low FODMAP serving size of 17 g, which is about one average chile.
• Brown Sugar: Brown sugar has been lab tested by both Monash University and FODMAP Friendly. There are many kinds of brown sugar, from cane to beet (to blends) to Muscovado and more, which we discuss in our Explore An Ingredient: Sugar. Unfortunately, there is no information about what kind of brown sugars were lab tested. Monash gives us a low FODMAP amount of 1/4 cup or 40 g but no further information. In addition, in private correspondence with Monash University we know that there are amounts larger than 40 g that would be considered low FODMAP. FODMAP Friendly gives us a low FODMAP amount of 13 g. Dark brown Muscovado sugar does appear in a product lab tested and certified low FODMAP by FODMAP Friendly, so we do know there is a low FODMAP amount.
• Chilli, red powdered: This chile powder lab tested by Monash University is New Mexico chile powder. It is low FODMAP in 2 g portions, but reaches “Moderate” at 3 g.
• Low FODMAP Garlic Powder: Conventional garlic powder is made from dried and granulated, or powdered, garlic cloves and is considered high FODMAP. There are a couple of low FODMAP garlic powders on the market: FreeFod Garlic Replacer and Fodmazing Garlic Substitute Replacer. The FreeFod has been lab tested and is certified low FODMAP by FODMAP Friendly. Both brands contain the same ingredients – maltodextrin and natural garlic flavor. We find them to be excellent additions to your herb and spice collection. Use them as you would conventional garlic powder.
• Low FODMAP Onion Powder: Conventional onion powder is made from dried and granulated, or powdered, onion and is considered high FODMAP. There are a couple of low FODMAP onion powders on the market: FreeFod Onion Replacer and Fodmazing Onion Substitute Replacer. The FreeFod has been lab tested and is certified low FODMAP by FODMAP Friendly. Both brands contain the same ingredients – maltodextrin and natural onion flavor. We find them to be excellent additions to your herb and spice collection. Use them as you would conventional onion powder.
Paprika: Monash University has lab tested paprika and it is low FODMAP in 1 teaspoon (2g) portion. Smoked paprika is low FODMAP as well.
Spices: Many fresh and dried spice have been lab tested by both Monash University and FODMAP Friendly and are easily looked up in the apps, which we strongly suggest that you have. The additional good news is that if you are interested in a spice that has not been lab tested, you can look at the nutritional panel and assess its FODMAP load for yourself. If the “Sugars” and/or “Carbs” are 1 g or less per serving, then the item would be a good bet to try.

Please always refer to the Monash University & FODMAP Friendly smartphone apps for the most up-to-date lab tested information. Foods will be retested from time to time; in the case of raw ingredients, such as fruits and vegetables, results may vary. All lab tested results are valid and represent a snapshot in time. As always, your tolerance is what counts; please eat accordingly. The ultimate goal of the low FODMAP diet is to eat as broadly as possible, without triggering symptoms, for the healthiest microbiome.
