For a real eye opener try a few bones without any seasoning. I did some testing one time and my control was peanut oil (which I mix with my rub) and nothing else. I was surprised how good these plain ribs tasted.
As for the rub I put on butts, last time was:
- 1 Tbsp black Pepper
- 1 Tbsp Rosemary
- 1/2 Tbsp Coriander
- 1 Tbsp Hungarian Paprika.
- 1 Tbsp Ancho powder
- 1 Tsp Cayenne pepper
- 1/2 Tbsp Cumin
- 2 Tbsp Garlic powder
- 1 Tbsp Onion powder
- 1 Tbsp Mustard powder
I mix this with enough peanut oil to make a slurry and smear that on the butt so it is not a dry rub I guess. As others have mentioned, due to the thickness of the meat, the flavor from the rub has little impact on the results.
