Thanks for the info Fo Shizzle.

Bigmista's Perfect Pork Rub.

I did two shoulders, one rubbed with Yardbird, and one rubbed with Bigmista's. Both cooked the same way, smoked with pecan. All of the meat with Bigmista's was gone and received the most compliments. I do love yardbird too.... I use it on just about everything including eggs, fried potatoes, popcorn, and of course chicken.

I usually do my butts with SM sweet and spicy and its excellent! I've been wanting to try a rub with a little less sugar because I cook my butts at high temps which can be too much for a sugary rub. I've got some yardbird and I'm gonna have to try that soon!

A few weeks ago I used some of that ‘Weber Kansas City Style” BBQ rub to cook a Butt for the family. I can’t remember where I got it from and it had been in the cabinet for awhile since I like making my own. I was surprised at the bark – it was not too shabby.
I would not call it my favorite but IMO it is worth a try.

Rub's for the bark, of course. Injection is what tempers the overall taste.

Stoke&Smoke · 01-10-2013, 05:40 PM

Bovine bold is pretty good on pork.
Chris Lilly's recipe is OK also

Big Mike · 01-10-2013, 06:40 PM

I'm a fan of Head Country Rub. IMHO it is a great all-around rub. One of these days I'm gonna have to check out Ployboys and some of the others.

For me, can't beat Dixie Dust.

firefighter4634 · 01-10-2013, 08:47 PM

Plowboys Yardbird for me. I also agree with CD, the rub does not penetrate much but I think it does add some flavor and a nice bark. I also like to injected along with the rub.

You don't need a fabcy rub to create bark on a butt Salt & Pepper gits it done.

This is not your pork! · 01-11-2013, 01:55 PM

Damned, I should have written "self-made rub", because I can't really try or compare all those mentioned commercial rubs, since they are not available here (I only have that one can of Yardbird, which I got as a present by a fellow brethren).

The butt glitter seems to be promising, but we don't have celery seeds and mustard powder, so I'll have to put that one on hold.

Smokey is already prepared for tomorrow's 3-way session, and the lineup still is

#1 Lemon Pepper
#2 Carolina PP Butt Rub (featuring cumin)
#3 Austrian "Schweinsbratl" (featuring caraway)

I know about the discussion rub or not, simple S&P (or the slightly more advanced lemon pepper) would do the job as well, but typical rubs definitely add to the overall experience, and there is no doubt about the bark when the rub contains sugar as well.

This is not your pork! · 01-14-2013, 05:59 AM

It has been rubbed, the results are to be seen here.

Hawg Father of Seoul · 01-14-2013, 06:48 AM

Dude, if you have Byron's Butt Rub (I know that is a big if) then add turbinado sugar and black pepper.

If not, make a homemade seasoned salt, ala the Baron, and add a little turbinado.
