I've been playin around with some different recipes for rubs. Latest one is a combo of creole seasoning, garlic powder, pepper, and seafood magic. Turned out pretty darn good. 4 hrs cook time. A bit spicy but it went over well. We smoked 2 racks for my brother in laws 40th today. I've done the brown sugar etc route. What other combos have you all used.dry..wet..I'm looking for more flavor combo ideas. I would like to try a little Caribbean/sweet combo next go around..maybe a little orange marmalade mix
 
Salt, Pepper, Tones Cajun Seasoning. - Salt and pepper as you normally would, then plenty of seasoning. Good on pork, beef or chicken...

I tend to stay away from the sugar and honey stuff....just my personal preferences.
 
I used this dry rub a few weeks ago, yeah I know, it has brown sugar...

1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup paprika
1 tablespoon black pepper ( I crushed a bunch of whole peppercorns)
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 teaspoon cayenne

I buy most of my spices from a food co-op, they seem to be a lot fresher and more flavorful. Pretty basic recipe though.
 
Not exactly a rub but if you are wanting a carribean taste and with your ability to get good oranges why not try a mojo sauce. Inject about 10% of the meat's weight with the same weight of mojo then let the rest of the meat marinate in this for a day or so depending on the size.

For every ten cloves of garlic, add 1/2 teaspoon salt, six black peppercorns, and some oregano. Mash them all together into a paste. Scoop the paste out into a separate bowl. Continue this process until all of the garlic (all five heads) is mashed.

Stir in sour orange juice. (Five heads of garlic should be added to about 1 quart of sour orange juice to make a mojo for a whole pig.) Let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes or longer. Use immediately to season the pork or refrigerate for later use.

To make a smaller amount, reduce the amounts, but keep the proportions. For example, to make 1 cup of mojo, use about 1 head of garlic, 1 teaspoon of salt, 12 black peppercorns, and 1 cup sour orange juice.

Once you've done this, dry off the meat and put your rub on the meat. Using a thick modified rub or mop with plenty of fruit(use your imagination on the fruit) and stuff along with the spices you choose will make something really tasty. Oh, and if you save the mojo you can use it to mop the meat in the first portion of the cook cause this will enhance the formation of the smoke ring due to some chemistry stuff that I can't explain.
 
Thanks. Vett, your recipe is awful close to mine. MM, ill try that one soon. I was thinking the sweetness of what I have in mind might compliment the spicy flavor of the creole season I use. Ill let you know how it turns out. Joe, I def have to try that!
 
For sweet/hot sauce: (sorry this is wet not a dry rub)

1 8oz jar of plum or apricot jam
2 (or to your taste) chopped jalapeno
1 medium onion, diced
1 tblsp minced ginger
about 3 tblsp creole season (more or less as you like)
about 1/2 bottle of Guiness

grill ribs over direct heat for about 15 minutes per side (you'll want good carmelazation)
Drink remainder of guiness while waiting.
Put ribs in roasting pan (foil wrap is okay, but pan works better) pour sauce over ribs, toss to coat. Add 1 cup water. Cover & return to grill over indirect heat for about 2 hours.

This sounds yummy ,have to try it on baby backs .. :nod:
 
Tried something different this weekend that turned out really good. Normal rub plus put a layer of chipotle seasoning over the top. Good combination.
