Need a good rub for ribs.

[markface]

We're doing beef ribs for a special next week and the boss asked me to see if i could find a good rub to use on them . Any suggestions are welcome . I would prefer something that can be put together with the dry spices and herbs on hand in the kitchen , but if someone knows of a premix that is redilly(sp) avalible in the hampton roads virginia area then that is good to . I believe they are to be bar-b qed .

This is my basic rub for pork ribs, it should work for beef ribs as well

8 parts brown sugar
1 part kosher salt
1/3 part dried oregano
1/3 part ground cayenne pepper
1/3 part ground cumin

I always found behind their ears or on their little tummies to work well

Whatever your recipe used, try interchanging light brown sugar with dark brown sugar. Ooooohhhhhhh, the nuances of rub...stimulates me into sheer synaptic ectasy!!! :bounce:
