    | This rub is THE AMERICAN BBQ rub for ribs, beef, pork, or chicken cooked in a smoker.  The recipe yields 1 cup which is  enough for 8 to 12 pounds of meat and is based on Steven Raichlen's recipe. I usually pre-salt my meat, so there is only smoked salt in the recipe. If you don't pre-salt, then add 2 tablespoons kosher or coarse sea salt to the recipe. |
