Famous Dave's (semi) Cajun Rub

I made a quarter recipe and still had lots left. Lisa will attest to the tastiness of this rub! I used it on ribs, but would be great for fish as well.

1/2 C paprika

6T kosher salt

1/4 C coarsely ground black pepper

3 T basil

3 T filé powder (semi Cajun because I didn't have this, but still delish!)

2 T garlic powder

2 T dry mustard

2 T onion powder

2 T dried oregano

2 T cayenne (reduce by 1/2 if you want it mild)

2 T white pepper (I also didn't have this)

2 T dried thyme
Makes 2 1/2 Cups Seasoning Mix
Mix all ingredients together. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dark place.
