None of the pork rub recipes I tried gave me the flavor I was going for. I decided to develop my own, and after countless tries, I finally fine-tuned my recipe to one I love. This works well for ribs, pulled-pork, pork chops, etc. It makes enough for several racks of ribs or pork butts. This is a spicy but not too hot recipe. If you want a bit more heat, add more cayenne pepper.Enjoy.

3 -4 Racks of ribs or pork butts (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 cup light brown sugar
3 tablespoons paprika
2 teaspoons seasoning salt (like Lawry's)
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons black pepper
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1 tablespoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard

Directions

1
Sift all ingredients together.I use a food processor to get a fine powder.
2
Put a liberal amount of the dry rub on the meat you wish to season.
3
Rub seasoning into the meat, covering entire surface.
4
Let meat sit at least a couple of hours in order to let the spices work into it. Overnight is better.
5
Prepare your pork as you wish. I like to cook pork butts and ribs low and slow so they fall apart. A crockpot works good if you don't want to run your oven for several hours. I finish my ribs on the grill or under the broiler with BBQ sauce.
6
Enjoy.

This was a really good rub for our pork ribs. I'm not sure how to rate it though, as I would give how I made it a 5 star (or more!), but I'm thinking the original would be a bit sweet for my tastes. I only put 1/3 cup br. sugar in, 1 tsp black pepper 1/2 tsp thyme and added 1/2 tsp garlic salt. They were awesome and not too hot (spicy) and just right salty and very flavorful!! YUM! I will definitely be using this again!! Thanks for the great blend of spices!! I did pour some vinegar over them before putting the rub on and grilled them over charcoal. Mmmmm!!!
