KyNola,

Thanks for the recipe.

We are going to put this on pork chops and bake / broil them tonight.

Thanks Mike,
Glad you liked it. I will certainly pass the thanks on to the wife as she is the one who found the original recipe that we tweaked up to the one you now have.

Thanks FLBR. So far no complaints from anyone(or at least they haven't posted them)so I feel pretty good about it.

I mixed a little in my ground beef for my lunch burger, and my older kids picked up on the aroma.

"Dad, did you put the rub in/on your burger?"

;D

It's great on scambled eggs, this is a pretty good all around rub and seasoning.

I tried it out with some Hickory in the Bradley on some Baby backs and they were great. I went a little too heavy on the rub by caking it up but just extra tasty. Next time I will coat well, but not so thick.

Hi all, I just made this rub for a bunch of ribs and brisket for a family party this weekend. I was just questioning myself, if the sugar used should of been brown sugar. Well I followed the recipe as described and used regular sugar. Is everyone using white sugar in this rub? Would there be much difference in taste between brown or reg. sugar? I have been browsing this forum for over a year and just realized I wasn't a member!

I used regular (white) sugar, and made a note that for the next batch I would use brown sugar.

NJTuna,
First of all, welcome to the forum as a member. As you already know, there are so many folks on here who are so educated about all things smoking. These guys and gals teach me something everyday.

As for the rub recipe, we used white sugar although we thought about brown sugar. There is no magic to the recipe. We found the original recipe on line and tweaked it just a bit for the flavor we were looking for. Added a couple of ingredients and increased the quantity of a couple spices in the recipe my wife found on line. Brown sugar will of course work. We felt like brown sugar was not going to give us the flavor we were trying to duplicate. The neat part about recipes is if you change one ingredient in a recipe, you can claim it as your own. :D

Hope your family finds the rub enjoyable. If not,it's your recipe! ;)

NJtuna;

Welcome to the forum.

I also used white sugar in this recipe. Brown sugar will give it a different taste, and during storage it will harden in the rub (unless you dry it in the oven first).

Unless I'm looking for that brown sugar flavor, I now use white sugar. I thought brown sugar was less process then white, but a year ago I learned how commercial brown sugar is made. They refine it to white sugar, then add the molasses back into it.

I've taken a liking to the granulated brown sugar for rubs. It doesn't cake up like the regular kind. Now that I am hooked on it, my store doesn't seem to have it anymore. :'(

I use turbinado sugar in most rubs now.

Since being turned on to turbinado sugar, I rarely use white or brown sugar anymore.
