Thanks guys....hope the rub itself compares to the shipping !!!
Man, you overnighted it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The effective cost per oz is probably something similar to cocaine!
If its as good as cocaine, you've got a winner for sure:mrgreen:.
My first impressions from a finger lick:
Nice uniform grain size other than the salt. I think its salt. I haven't isolated and tried the big crystal, but since I don't think its sugar... i'm sure its a sea salt.
It has a powerful but not overwhelming cumin smell (I'm probably more sensitive to this smell than most people). Not being a big fan of cumin, I was pleasantly surprised at the mild, earthy cumin flavors the rub had. Nothing overwhelming. What ever brand of cumin you used... its the first one i've ever liked.
The flavors are uniform in intensity and well balanced. The earthyness of the cumin and paprika are the most notable. Not very sweet or peppery, and very mild on the heat.
I'm going to rub up a butt this weekend and take pictures for you. I'll let you know how it all turns out.
Its nice to compare another rub with my own. Mine seems overly sweet and b peppery compared to yours. Yours is more balanced and earthy. Going to do a side by side comparison and invite the neighbors. We'll see what we get. I'm rootin for you ("mine" is off of a website, i'm not attached to it as if it were actually MINE :wink

THanks again mrwicks:grin:
