I LOVE the charcoal cooking smell, but I DON"T like the fuss using a grill. I like anything that's roasted too. Thus, I use a compact rotisserie machine. It does an OK job, yet I wanted to find the CHARCOAL RUB spice. I thought I could have my rotisseries with slight degree of charcoal flavor. I searched online, and found people mentioning that there used to be a spice called charcoal rub on the market but not anymore. Some even suggested to use "activated charcoal" and mix with your own spices, to avoid MSG or other additives in the commercial barbecue rubs.
OK,,so I bought the activated charcoal at GNC and rub the fine powdery charcoal on the meat. However, the charcoal produced absolutely no smell during cooking or done cooking. That was the name of it "ACTIVATED CHARCOAL." How can charcoal not produce any charcoal when it's cooked?
Did I use the right thing???
Thanks
