Dry Rub

2 tablespoons paprika
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 tablespoon dark brown sugar
1-1/2 teaspoons salt
1-1/2 teaspoons celery salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Season (sprinkle) those ribs, top and bottom at least 4 hours (24 hours if possible) before the festivities.

You can wet mop the ribs with a combination of vinegar, water and dry rub (make a little extra dry rub).

Oh, CK, UR de Best! It sounds great

DD, what about a marinade first (which is what I am doing) then, let the sauce sort drip off but rub some dry spices on top. That way its moist and flavored inside and crusty outside . (??)

Do the dry rub on the meat before hand, and mop it with the sauce during cooking. Nothing wrong with that!

A visit to this site might enlighten you a bit......did me.

when all pieces are rubbed, place chicken on grill and grill until done. (juices run clear)

As a possible side I love fried Plantains

4 to 5 ripe plantains
Cooking oil
Pinch of salt

Peel plantain, and cut into half inch thick slices
Heat 2 inches of oil in a heavy duty frying pan
Fry plantain a little at a time until it is slightly golden
Remove and drain on paper towels
Take a glass and flatten the plantain
Return to frying pan and fry until golden
Remove from oil and drain

lightly sprinkle salt over the plantains

I admit, I'm not a BBQ specialist. But I've been having this urge t marinate something (beef, chicken, shrimp, whatever) and then when I grill it (I know, grilling ain't the same as BBQ, but, indulge me here..) I want to add a dry rub. Is this crazy?

Or common? What do you suggest (method, ingredients)
