Subsequent to that recipe, Harry offered up this simplified version which I use quite often. It's got a little heat, which I like.

• 1 TBSP Lawry’s Seasoned Salt
• 1 TBSP granulated sugar
• 1 TBSP McCormick Grill Mates Montreal Steak Seasoning
• 1-1/2 tsp mild chili powder
• 1-1/2 tsp paprika
• 1-1/2 tsp granulated garlic
• 1/4 to 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper

On both of these recipes, would you say it’s enough rub for 1 or 2 racks of ribs? Or more?

The first recipe makes 15 tablespoons of rub before the addition of the cayenne. There's 16 T in a cup. Way more that needed for two racks of ribs.

The second recipe makes 4-1/2 tablespoons of rub before the addition of the cayenne. That's a little more than 1/4 cup. I'd say that's enough for two racks of ribs.
