Big Al’s x11 Rib Rub recipe
4 cups dark brown sugar (=one 32oz. pkg.)
½ cup kosher salt
¾ cup chili powder
2 tsp onion powder
2 tsp garlic powder
½ tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp ground mustard
Mix ingredients well and store in an airtight container. It makes a lot but it basically stores forever!
Apply a thick rub to both sides and let it sit in the fridge overnight, then smoke for about 6 hours at 225 degrees.
The ingredients are pretty standard (but don’t skip any!), but it’s the proportions that make this special.
