Thanks for the input, I’ll check it out!Welcome to SMF from Gilbert, AZ! Check out Chile's rubs, they are excellent, can often be made by what's already in your pantry, cost a fraction of store-bought, I use them and love them. RAY
Chile's Basic Rubs for Pork, Chicken and Brisket
These are my basic homemade rubs, always bags of these in the spice cabinet. From these basic recipes it is very easy to adjust them one way or another, no salt, more salt, sweet, savory, mild, hot or for particular flavor profiles. These are not processed in a spice grinder, I just whisk them...www.smokingmeatforums.com
Thanks! I really enjoy a spicy rub. Have any thoughts?Welcome aboard sir. I like basic, equal parts salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder and half as much chipotle powder. But your request could prob be answered better ifbyou are wanting a sweeter, saltier or spicier rub
Sounds great. Thank you!I use a variation of the Memphis Dust rub. I add 2 TBSP of Cumin and 2 TBSP of Chipotle Chili powder and use it on all pork products I make. My family is all about it.
Awesome, I’ll give this a try at some point. Thanks!I really like to use Jeff's rub for pork. We call it rib rub at home. It's definitely my wife's favorite. The low salt is great with pork and the sweetness to sharp notes are just the right balance for any kind of pork. Definitely worth the cost for me.

Thanks so much for the input! I’m going to give all these a try at some point. I think i’m going with the Memphis Magic Dust and this big guy. I’ll let you know how it goes.First off, welcome! There’s not a better site on the Net to pick up great tips for smoking just about anything.
If you’re looking for recommendations for commercial pork rubs, my favorite is Simply Marvelous Spicy Apple Rub. IMO, for butts and ribs it’s hard to beat. If you’re looking more at some home made recipe, one of my favorites is Memphis Magic Dust:
Pulled pork rub
OK really scared of my mother in law's chilli and BBQ for Xmas Eve dinner so I volunteered to make some pulled pork. I need a kick a$$ rub to impress the family - something other than SPOG OR Jeff's.www.smokingmeatforums.com
Or, a good all around Rub is Jeff’s Rub recipe. Jeff is the owner of this site, and proceeds of his recipe sales help keep the lights on around here
