INGREDIENTS
- ¼ cup dark brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon mustard powder
INSTRUCTIONS
- In a bowl, combine all the spices and seasonings, stirring until the blend is well mixed.
- Dry the ribs, then season with dry rub liberally, rubbing it into the ribs for maximum flavor.
- After the ribs have rested for at least 30 minutes (overnight for deeper flavor), grill, smoke or bake until tender and caramelized.
NOTES
- Adjust the Spice Level — To make your rub spicier, add an extra ½ teaspoon of cayenne or black pepper for more heat.
- Batch It Up – This rub keeps well in an airtight container in a cool, dark place for up to 6 months, so make a big batch and have it on hand for future BBQs.
