So we are about to be snowed in tomorrow around Atlanta, so I picked up a pack of spare ribs to entertain myself with. However, since it was last minute I didn't plan ahead with any rub ingredients. I have everything for Memphis Dust except the Rosemary and Ginger - will that be good without those two or should I try something else instead?
The ingredients i have on hand are your typical basics: brown & white sugar, paprika, black pepper, chili powder, cumin, cayenne pepper, oregeno, thyme, cinnamon, and kosher salt for dry brining. If roads are clear tomorrow obviously I can just go to the store and finish off the Memphis Dust. But if they are iced over, any ideas what I can do with what I already have? I figure you can't go much wrong with a simple salt, sugar, paprika, and black pepper combo, but I'd be more interested in what has worked for others rather than just trying something that might suck and ruin the ribs.
I also have some homemade rub I use for pulled pork left using the above ingredients, but since I haven't done ribs much I wasn't sure if what works for pulled pork would also work for ribs or if they typically need to be different for different taste profiles. Thoughts?
