l@@king for a Rib Rub... not too hot...

[Jeff Fox]

Hoping to find a good rib rub recipe that is not hot... I am doing some bb ribs this weekend and don't want them to be too hot for my kids. I am also wondering if I try to make my own with a found recipe just modified.. Is it the paprika or cayene (or both) that makes it hot..? The plan is to make a nice rub that will compliment Sweet Baby Ray's sauce.. Thanks for any help you could give me...

The cayenne will make it HOT.

SBR's is really sweet and heavy. If you like that much sweetness, I would just smoke them without rub or just rub them with a little salt and pepper and finish with the sauce at the end.

I'm not a fan of Sweet Baby Ray's at all.

Jeff, if you have a recipe that looks good....just cut the hot pepper portion by 1/3 to 1/2 and/or use less.


Do what folks do who need to restrict salt-just do it for the peppers.

Thanks... That is what I decided to do. I found a good one and dropped the cayene but used the chili powder that it called for... not both. I will see how it goes tomorrow... THANKS AGAIN.
