Wish I could say I have something like that.  The best information I can give you is that the ingredients list for that seasoning is the following:

Quote:
FULL INGREDIENTS

SUGAR, SALT, BROWN SUGAR, SPICES, ONION, GARLIC, MAPLE SYRUP, RED BELL PEPPERS, ORANGE PEEL, PAPRIKA, SAFFLOWER AND SUNFLOWER OIL, MOLASSES, CHILI PEPPER, CARAMEL COLOR, NATURAL SMOKE FLAVOR, AND NATURAL FLAVOR.
Ingredients must always be ordered 1st to last with what is most prevalent 1st to what is least prevalent last.

My stab at it would be the sugars, salt, onion, garlic, some sort of maple syrup seasoning, some sort of red bell pepper seasoning or ground version, some sort of dried orange zest, SMOKED paprika (to get smoke and paprika flavor all in one), and chili powder.

I hope this gives you some ideas if you want to try and reverse engineer the seasoning :)

Too get the best maple flavor use powdered maple syrup. You may have to order it sometimes you can find it at health food stores.

Well,Ii found maple sugar, ordered it ( https://thrivemarket.com/ ) and will be here Thursday, I am going to make the rub above, and use it Sunday on a spatchcocked turkey .... I am un - thawing a 12 lb er .... 
 
Yeah, I usually always spatchcock turkeys anymore, seems they get done faster and the skin isn't as ripe, when I smoke a turkey whole, the skin seems to be to smokey ... 
 
Maple sugar came last night ups, will make up this rub today, and spatchcock a turkey Sunday ... 
 
 I am  going to start a thread on this in the am, with the new rub recipe, spatchcocking a 12 lb turkey...
