Oh boy, I don't make my own rubs - found too many GREAT ones from the Brethren - and I don't know if I could make one on my own that even comes close. I can't tell you which is my favorite, because it changes based on my mood and the direction of the wind (or something). I'd list some of them, but I'm afraid I'd forget someone. But, so far the rule has been, if one of the Brethren makes it, it's better than good!
