Recommendations please for good low heat rubs.

[Ron5442]

I keep hearing about all the different kinds of fantastic rubs that are available from various venders and I’d like to try some. I would just send off for some of the recommended ones; but, I can’t take hot spices. Anything beyond mild is usually too hot for me. So with this limitation in mind, what rubs would you recommend?

Thanks
Ron

I use Klose chicken rub on all my bbq, sometimes I just use salt and pepper.

1/4 cup brown sugar
3 tablespoons blackpepper(coarse ground)
3 Tablespoons coarse salt(kosher)
1 Tablespoon hickory smoked salt(or more coarse salt)
2 Teaspooon garlic powder
