I've been going sugarless in my rubs, for no reason except to try it. I've done it with ribs and butt and 2 different rub recipes. I cann't tell the difference in the finished product. I'm mainly a chilly head but the rest of my family is of the opinion sweeter is better, and they haven't noticed, In fact they have said it tastes great. So, what does or why is sugar added in rubs?
