looking for a good rub

[Chezmatt]

I like to make my own, although after hearing the reviews on here, I may start trying some of the rubs mentioned above.

For pork, I go with:
3 parts kosher salt
3 parts paprika
2 parts brown sugar
1 part mustard powder
1 part garlic powder


For brisket, I like to go with:
1 part kosher salt
1 part brown sugar
1 part paprika
1 part chili powder
1/2 part white pepper (if you really like that pepper flavor, substitute black pepper)

That pork rub sounds good.

Add some garlic and oregano to your brisket rub.

I too have been looking for a good rub recipe. I don't buy the small jars so buying rub in bulk is a tough task.

I buy 10 lb or 5 lb packages and put into 32 oz Shaker Top Containers, but you have to be carefull as some rubs are almost all salt.

It's hard to find someone who prepares a rub that cares about the end product as much as you do. Most retailers are looking for the money, but not all.

american spice has an acceptable rub, but they are overpriced.

I am open for any suggestions for bulk purchases or for a recipe to try if captndan wishes to share his.

Rub Co., Yardbird, and Oakridge rubs are my favorite.

I like Tex Joy Special BBQ Seasoning. But I'm simple.

I personally like to use Bad Byron's Butt Rub. Has a spicy sweet flavor to it and everyone in my family simply loves it.

If I may interject here, I just made some lower quality "petite sirloin" kind of like a chuck eye sliced in 1/2" thick cuts on my smoky joe with cowboy brand lump and 1 hand full of apple wood chips, indirect cook "reverse sear" style.

The rub is a 2 part to 1 part McCormick grill mates steak rub and sweet n smoky

2 tablespoons steak
1 tablespoon sweet n smoky

WOW WOW WOW what awesome flavor!

(If I knew how to take pics, and do anything with them but look at them on paper, I would post pics but I am tech ignint.... )
