Memphis Dust

[Ahumadora]

I already use cloves in my memphis rub, works great

MMD is great on butts, ribs and chicken! We would love to see some pics of your first butt.

I made my first batch on Wednesday to go with my first pork butt. put it all in a nice Tupperware dish sealed and and shook it like a mad man. mixed up pretty well. Been dry-brining the butt for a little over 24 hours now.

Apple Powder? hmmmmmm. Might have to fire up the Dehydrator and the grinder.

Num num num. Soon as I'm allowed to walk again, I'll be playing with this. I've wondered about coffee rubs and since we're opening a coffee shop, that might be something to add come summer.

[Northside Brian]

intrigued by the idea of ground cloves in MMD. Dont think you would need very much though. I dont think it would work on pork, but might be excellent on chicken or duck.

becker71, make another batch with no sugar and add it to the original batch you made. Try it and if it isnt sweet enough you can just add a small amount of sugar.

When I have to use granulated ingredients instead of powdered, I either use a mortar and pestle or mix them up in a coffee grinder. Yes, I add a TBSP of cumin and it really brings out the umami flavor

[Ahumadora]

I am toying with grinding up dried apple and a bit of cloves to add to my memphis dust. Anyone ever tried apple powder on ribs?

[fuzzydaddy]

Welcome becker71. We'd love to get an intro from you over in the Introduce Yourself channel when you get a minute. Thanks!

Add more of everything else? Or increase the salt you are using in your dry brine.

MMD is good stuff, we always have a batch on the shelf

New mexican green chile, New Mexican red, Chipotle, Ancho

What chili powders do you add? I love MD, but I have been trying to think of the right spice addition that will cut the sweet with some minor bite, or bold hint. I hadn't thought much about chili, but that could be a nice compliment.

I have an idea... reduce the sugar by 50% and try that.😎 If it's still to sweet reduce it another 50% until you get it the way you like it.
