Title: Anyone tried this rub?
Post by: str1der on April 15, 2005, 06:38:45 PM
Not an advertisment just a satisfied customer. I ordered this rub and I've used it on shoulder, ribs, and beer can chicken. All turned out outstanding. The price is very reasonable for a 3lb tub. Have any of you guys/girls used it before? What did you think? I'm fairly new to rubs so I'm not sure how it compares.

I guess that's a big no. I was very pleased with this rub and I think I'm going to order another bucket. I'm also looking to get a good coffee type rub since I love country ham and redeye gravy.

I haven't used the Uncle Bud rub, but I'll put it on my list to try based on your endorsement.

As for coffee-type rubs, Dizzy Pig makes an excellent one called Red Eye Express.  BigSmoker sells them on his website:  www.bbqshopping.com
I haven't tried it on pork but its dynamite on beef! [:p]

John....I just ordered some rubs myself. I have found though, that some of the best rubs are homemade and very simple. I sometimes just use the Montreal Steak Seasoning and that is sooooo good. I even put it on scrambled eggs and my salads.

I'm not a big fan of pre-made rubs but will use them if I can't get all the fixin's together...so, I'm saying "no", I have not used it.

I just like the ability to adjust the ingredients if I want!

I like to make all my own rubs, to me, half the fun is experimenting with spices. I use Paul Kirks book as a guide and modify from there.

I to like to make my own. When you put the spices together yourself you can identify them when eating the meat. You can then say 'I think next time I'll add a little more of this or that'. Its nice to know whats going on what you're eating.

I can really appreciate the value and fun of making your own rubs, and believe me, you guys make it sound pretty tempting.  As easy as it is, I still am lazy enough to just want to have a variety of rubs on the shelf to grab when I get the time to smoke. [:D]

I often make my own rubs. Occasionally I am surprised with commercial mixes. Someone gave me a bunch of rubs last Christmas. One of them is "Durkee Grill Creations Kansas City Style Steak Seasoning". It is great on brisket. So when I need something real quick to rub on a brisket I know I can use that.

I'm of the same mind John. I've done some experimenting but it's nice to find a good reliable commerical rub that's this cheap. Just thought I'd mention it out there for those that might be interested. Remember that a lot of these rubs were just someones home recipe that is now being sold.
