Ok Jeff, I ponied up the money for your rib rub. I will be cooking 7 slabs of baby backs at the firestation on Saturday. It better be good

I love dry rubs on my ribs and chicken. It is tough for me to find one that I like as I do not like "salty" and many rubs seem to be (at least purchased ones). I only use JK's dry rub (from Outerbanks) currently.

I would like to buy and try this infamous rub... my question is -- is it salty when mixed according to directions? If one can adjust level of salt, is it only impacting taste? Anyone else have a salt aversion?

Thanks,

Ted
 
If I were you I would follow the recipe to the T on the first batch, then you can play around with it on your own to suit yor personal taste.
 
I'm a newbie and I used them and got rave reviews from everyone. In all honesty....that stuff is just awesome! Maybe it was a fluke first time around that I got the results I did, but without a doubt....my Baby backs never would have been as good wiothout the rib rub and sauce!
 
i bought em both...........i have to admit, that just to taste the rub.....bare..........too sweet and too hot.........but wait till you taste it as a bark.........the heat and the sweetness reduce........NOT SALTY AT ALL......if nothing else........use sea salt.......less sodium........i am going to post more on this later in another thread talking bout sodium/pottasium discussion........heheh.....if i can find it again...........

i make it just like the directions say to. i love it the way it is. before i bought the recipes, i would just sprinkle some different spices on the meat, covering the meat with the first- and then covering each spice with another. i never premixed them before application to said meat. i don't know why i never thought to do it.
 
i have a batch of the rub mixed up waiting to go on some pig butt and brisket that i will be firing up first thing in the morning .... (gotta feed my smoker and never have managed to stay up all night heh)
 
it's good as is but fer my tastes & i'm a modder.... just add the rub to a 1/4 cup of molasses & 1/2 cup of dicedor minced pineapple w/ a decent squirt of bacardi gold or capt. morgans & use as a marinade or baste- just let it fridge fer a couple days first....whoo ahh... good stuff.
 
I haven't tried the rub yet. The sauce is delicious. I have had many good comments on it. I have not strayed from the original recipe. It is too good to mess with. Can't wait to try the rub.
 
Add another person to the sauce fan club! Jeff, I made both the rub and sauce last night. The sauce did not last very long at all! There was only 3 of us but it was gone within minutes. Very good stuff!

I really need to get 'em and give 'em a try. I need a good rub, and would like to have a good homemade sauce. I use Sweet Baby Ray's and love it, but homemade is homemade.

Wow, if you have not tried this rub, you need to. It was all I could do last night not to eat it strait. I kept finding myself back in the kitchen tasting it. over and over and over. Someone mentioned it earlier that you could taste each ingrediant. I am making the sauce tonight. I've been using cattlemans, so we'll see how it stands up. I plan on smoking a rack of spare ribs this sat.
