I have read and analyzed many recipes for years. I have used spreadsheets and done comparisons of around 30 different rubs. It's amazing to me how just 1 ingredient can make a difference. That said, I can't get away from Jeff's rub and sauce. To me, Jeff's recipes are very user friendly. My family and friends don't like too much heat, so I go a little sweeter and leave out a little heat without going totally bland.
Some folks have special recipes for braises and glaze, but I stick with Jeff's and keep it simple. For a glaze, I use equal parts of Jeff's sauce and honey. If it's a braise, I just add another part of apple juice. Very simple, but I'm simple and it works for me.
Good luck with rubs and sauces. Share your successes, Joe
