Like you guys, Bad Byron's was my go-to before discovering this place. And I also keep it around. Imagine my surprise, though, when I actually looked at the label not too long ago and found there's no sugar in it. And yet, I always seem to get bark. Is this stuff magic, or what?
And yes, Hank's probably is better, although I'd sure love it to come in larger bottles.
If you want something a little sweeter, Honey Hog from Meat Church. If I want something more savory, I just do the 'ol Franklin/Lewis rub of salt, pepper, Lawry's salt and garlic. It's cheaper too
Meat Church Honey Pork Rub was soooo good. Ingredients were: Sugar, Turbado sugar, Brown sugar, Honey powder, chillies, and then spices. Was sweet, but with a little heat. Not salty. Lets put it this way: I did it on my Weber Summit Charcoal, and the family said "Best one evah!"
Smokin' Guns Hot. Dizzy Pig's Crossroads. Butcher BBQ's Sweet Chipoltle Rub mixed 50/50 with his premium rub. In no particular order, they all make good pork bark! Always start a pork butt with Big Poppa Smokers' Jallelujah (not the bacon one).
My family has used Smokin' Guns on everything for years. We've occassionaly experimented with others and always gone back. Especially for ribs.
Cook Shack BBQsauce is always on tap also.
Most of the time I use my basic rub with a few additions that punch it different directions, but I have been trying some commercial rubs recently. They are good and I enjoy their differences.
