Why I wrote this recipe
I’m a huge fan of homemade barbecue sauces and BBQ rubs, but due to convenience and the inability to pass by the spice aisle at the grocery store without taking a peek… I usually don’t have a *need* to make DIY spice blends at home.
But we’ve become religious smoked pork BBQ eaters, it’s really become a game day tradition for my husband to whip up a rack of his smoked ribs for a crowd…
So it was time to nail a rib rub recipe for pork that we could have ready at a moment’s notice.
You can use this recipe for more than just smoking food or as a dry rub for pork ribs in oven.
