For a richer flavor, consider using smoked paprika in the spice blend.
If you don't have a dehydrator, you can use your oven. Set it to the lowest possible temperature and prop the door open slightly to allow moisture to escape.
Experiment with different types of wood chips in a smoker for an extra layer of flavor.
