Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • ¼ cup brown sugar

  • ¼ cup ground paprika

  • 3 tablespoons salt

  • 2 tablespoons ground black pepper

  • 1 tablespoon cayenne pepper

  • 2 teaspoons ground mustard powder

Directions

  1. Combine brown sugar, paprika, salt, pepper, cayenne pepper, and mustard powder in a bowl; mix until well combined.

  2. Use immediately on pork (see footnotes) or store in an airtight container in a cool, dark place for several months.

To Use:

Work the dry rib mixture into the meat about 1 hour before smoking. Save some of the rub to sprinkle on during the smoking process to replace any rub lost during turning.

Cook’s Note

I have found this recipe works best with just plain paprika, as opposed to smoked or some other fancy flavoring.
