baby back rub favorites please

[cletus t.s.]

Hello smokers
Need some help for smoking some baby backs this Saturday.  I'll be smoking about 3 racks of baby backs and would love some help with your most favorite rub recipes.  Looking to make at least 3 different rubs,  one for each rack. As a token of my gratitude I promise to have a beer for you if I choose your rub. Ill even let you choose The beer. Thanks in advance for your time and suggestions.

I made a batch of Jan's rub and am going to have to make another. Love it. I have played with the amount of sugar for different things with equally good results. I seem to have misplaced it but you can find it in the recipe site. And here is Iceman's oink'r rub. I haven't tryed it yet but I will be.

Oink'r rub is absolutely perfect. Go easy on it with the ribs, but apply liberally on butts.

Be sure to do one simple - salt/pepper and maybe some cayenne.  That way you have a comparison.

Its not really a rub but it is still good.

Olive oil
sea salt
coarse black pepper

I like to keep it simple....
