Can anyone help me out with a sweet rub for babybacks?  I have Jeff''s Naked Rib Rub and it is great, but I have a few that thinks it is to spicy.  If someone could help me out it would certainly be appreciated.
 
This is the rub i have decided to make as my go to for any pork.

first instead of plain yellow mustard . i mix

1 cup yellow mustard

1/2 cup molasses

1 tsp liquid crab boil
Brush this liberally on your pork.

The rub:

1/4 cup hungarian or spanish paprika

1/4 cup onion powder

1/4 cup garlic powder

1/4 cup cbp

2 tsp celery seed

2 tsp ground mustard

2 tsp cumin

1 tsp nutmeg

1 1/4 cup dark brown sugar.

it helps to get the lumps out if you run this thru a grinder or food processer.

Coat the pork w/ a heavy coat of the rub. wrap and in the fridge overnight if possible.

B4 you smoke hit the pig w/ another dusting of rub and smoke away.

This recipe makes enough rub for 6 racks of spares or 2 large butts.

   Hope you enjoy and let me know if you try it.

 This is my pig rub and if it's not sweet enough you can add more sugar.

 Also, i add 2 tsp cayanne when i make it for us .But i realize that everyone doesn't like the heat.
 
This one is from America's Test Kitchen for Sweet and Sticky Kansas City Ribs.  My other half likes sweet, and I don't.  LOL
