BBQ dry rub

Jump to recipe

This is my first attempt at creating a spice rub. I’ve made a few spice blends that I can share, but this one is an integral component of both my BBQ pork ribs and mango bourbon BBQ sauce.

There are a couple unusual ingredients here that you can substitute or discard as it suits your taste.
