Favorite Commercial Rub

[Dean C.]

I have liked experimenting and making my own rub but recently, I tried Cimmaron Doc's rib rub and loved it. Anyone have a preference when it comes to commercial rub? How do you doctor them up, if at all? Thanks.

Dean, I was given a bottle of Smokin in the Dark rub as a present. I tried it on some ribs in a contest and came in 3rd. My rub places me in the middle some place. Did 6 b backs for a friend and he said they were the best he had ever eatin.
I'm sold on it.

Barbecue of The Americas from Penzeys. I love it on wings. Rub them and put them in the freezer. O boy.

Texas BBQ Rub #1 (Original) and #2 Brisket Rub. I also love the gloves, great for pulling pork or handling hot meat in general.

Dixie Dust is also very good. Check out this link.

Rubs and Sauces

Bonesmokers, Head Country, and Butt Rub are all great choices, if your looking for a pepper rub for beef try DrBBQ's Crank it up Rub.

Head Country as mentioned by Jim above is excellent, as are their sauces. My favorite on brisket for some time now has been Smoking Guns (Hot). Lower salt content, and excellent flavor. Fortunately, Phil and Linda's son works here in Tulsa, so when I need a refill I just wait until son goes home or Mom and Dad come to visit, and get delivery service!

Favorite on ribs is Bill Arnold's Blues Hog, or the homemade rub included in Chris Lilly's 3-stage competition ribs.

Oh, and Dixie Dust, too. That's some good stuff!

Hi,

I'm another fan of the Tesas BBQ Rubs. I sometimes add a bit of cayenne pepper to boost up the heat.

I also make up rubs on the fly. Usually starts with equal parts Kosher salt, turbinado sugar and sweet paprika. then after that its always different.

Another nod for Head Counry Rub and their BBQ sauces Original & Hot. That's some good eats. Also a huge fan of the Texas BBQ Rubs #1 & #2 great stuff. I have some Blues Hog Rub and BBQ Sauce's to try. Hopefully will be able to try them over Christmas.

I really like Dixie Dust, got some Head Country, haven't tried it yet.

Try Dizzy Dust and they have a rub for any cut you could come up with. It really has a nice kick to it.

For what it's worth, I like Head Country, and Bab Byron's Butt Rub
