I have won 4 BBQ competitions with this rub.

I use on Pork and Chicken Only

 

2/3 cup paprika
1/3 cup salt
1 1/2 cup light brown sugar


1 tablespoon ground mustard

1 Tablespoon Ginger

3/4 cup white sugar
1/2 cup granulated garlic
4 tablespoons granulated onion
1/4 cup chili powder
2 tablespoon fresh ground black pepper
2 tablespoon cumin
2 teaspoon cayenne pepper.. ((OR)).. 1 tablespoon if you like spicy.... Cayenne depends on its rating typically anywhere from 30,000 to 190,000 Scoville Heat Units (SHU) on the Scoville Rating Scale. The normal that you buy is 30,00 thtt T  The  t


Most stores only seel 30,000 to 50,000 SHU its a little mild... I Buy 90,000 SHU from Whole foods it takes less and is Double the heat what you buy from your local store.

You have a very interesting rub.

I have 3 questions, cayenne pepper is less than 1% of the total volume and will not be apparent in the rub IMHO, why did you use this amount?

Which 4 BBQ comps have you won using this rub?

What do you use this rub on, beef, pork or chicken?
 
1/2 cup of salt seems like a bit much.... But I'll give it a try for sure! thanks!


 Gotta always try the original, then tweak to your liking. I can see I would probably agree with Hewgag on the Salt, but I have issues with it. Also with cliffcarter on the cayenne. GOTTA have more of that.
 
How much rub does that recipe yield? Looks similar to mine except for the salt and ginger. I use way less salt. I saw someone else who used ginger in their rub. I am going to try it this weekend with ginger instead of cinnamon and see what happens.
Looks like it will yield about 5 cups of rub. 2 cups of that being sugars. And i thought my rub was sweet.

Thanks for sharing - gonna have to give it a try.  I used to live up there in Torrance at 234th and Anza. Miss the Christmas in the hollow a lot.
