Being single, making my own is about as expensive a buying. And I'm lazy

I have tried a few commercial rubs, my wife prefers my mixtures better, and quite frankly, so do I. Edited to add, I don’t think mine concoctions are better, I’m pretty certain they are not, they just have been more fine tuned for what my wife and I enjoy, and how it balances various flavors of various cooks, for our liking.Last edited by Richard Chrz; May 4, 2021, 10:10 AM.

rickgregory It's not much easier making rubs yourself. Endless supply of recipes in books and on the internet! 😜

There's so many rubs out there it could take you ten plus years to try them all then narrow it down.
I make my own rubs but if I see something that strikes my interest when shopping I'll give it a go.
Sadly many rubs are regional or aren't available up here in the boonies or for you in Seattle.
One of the few I have tried was a Blues Hog product so I'll go with that.

Favorite Beer - Bells Two Hearted
Used Trim Tabbs Pig Powder since before I knew anything about this site. Still use the rub, but the outcome is far better now. His daughter had a restaurant down the road where it was easily bought. Now I order in bulk online when I can find it.

I will have to finally decide, pick one and leave the others behind.
SPG is great and goes with everything. No, wait there is Oink and Hollar from Sugar's BBQ or swine life, I still have not tried Killers hog, Meat Church. I have not yet decided on making my own.
This question is not fair! I tell you. Not Fair.
But thanks for asking.
Happy grilling to you, and PBR too
