Need to add little heat to my pork rub.
« on: July 14, 2018, 09:02:13 AM »

Mom does not like anything spicy. My first rub for a pork butt had cumin in it and she did not like it. Been using Memphis dust and another rub that are more sweet than spicy. What spice could I add to pick it up a notch and about how much for a small butt.

Here is a rub that I used to make.

Rib Rub

You will need 1 box of Granulated Light Brown Sugar (14 oz.)
 
Pour into a gallon ziplock bag (in order of ingredients listed):
 
1/3 Box granulated light brown sugar
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
4 tablespoons paprika
2 tablespoons granulated garlic
4 tablespoons chili powder
1/3 box granulated light brown sugar
2 tablespoons black pepper
2 tablespoons onion powder
4 tablespoons salt
2 tablespoons ground mustard
4 tablespoons cinnamon
1/3 box granulated light brown sugar
(You may need to adjust the rub accordingly to your tastes.  The rub should taste sweet first, and then you should feel a lit bit of spice afterward).
 
Shake thoroughly.

Ours is about as simple as you can get - 1/2 cup granulated sugar to 1/2 cup light brown sugar to 3 Tablespoons chili powder. Our current favorite is Penzey's Chili 9000, but anyone will work, depending on your tastes. We haven't needed any additional pepper, cumin, anything, really.
