on the rub part do this. get your meat cut out of the package and let it set while you build your fire. there will be enough surface moisture to stick the rub too when the fire is ready. on a marinade just put your frozen and the marinade into the reefer overnite. most marinades will only penetrate into the first half inch of meat anyway. if however you are going to pump your meat then of course it has to be thawed. the whole thing about frozen is just to match the smoke ring coming from a pellet smoker with that coming from an electric. you are only going to gain 1 to 1 1/2% getter yeild.

Sweet Jack, Thanks for the reply. I to have been wondering about putting a rub on a frozen piece of meat.
Cheers; Mass
this is great to know. i would have thought the rub would come off during the meat thawing. thanks for the tip.
