Head Country Rub

Has anyone tried this before? Is it sweet or savory?

MilitantSquatter · 09-25-2011, 07:53 PM

Salty...

40% is salt.

Savory, salty, definitely not sweet. And it has MSG.
It is pretty good though.

Yep, I bought it to try it and found it too salty for my taste. But, I have read where some like it.

Thanks guys. My wife and kids really like sweet rubs, so this is a no go.

We just had the Chris Lilly Mephis Dry rub. It is sweet. Best I ever made. It is now my favorite go to rub.

Yup still got a big old plastic jar of it. I haven't thrown it out yet, just hate wasting food items. But can't think of anyone that would love a super salty rub.

In the past Plowboys yardbird was my go to rub, but the last few containers of it I have bought seemed a bit to salty for me. Even in judges comments at a contest I did in Storm Lake Iowa that was a comment I got from a judge on ribs..too salty, and I only used Plowboys Yardbird and no other seasoning or rub.

Don't forget to check out www.oakridgebbq.com and order up the sample pack for $3.75. All the rubs are sweet with the exception of the Santa Maria rub. Not only are they sweet they are savory and have a the slightest tinge of heat. They will make your mouth dance with happiness!!! The very best discovery I have made since finding the brethren website!
