Dry Rub for Smoking Ribs
Posted: Fri May 07, 2010 6:34 am
So this weekend will be my maiden voyage into smoking. I plan to do a couple slabs of baby back ribs, low and slow according to Homer. I've listened to both Homer shows on the session and copied down the ingredients for the dry rub:
Salt
Pepper ( Quite a bit )
Celery Salt
Cumin
Chili Powder
Paprika
Brown Sugar
White Sugar
My question is, what proportions do you think are best for this rub. He did say to use quite a bit of pepper, but I'd hate to over power the spices too much.
I do plan to use vinegar and mustard on them as well. Damn I'm getting hungry already.
Also, how often do you baste them, every 1/2 hour? Ever hour?
Thanks.
