Mellow Rib Rub

(originally posted to the wrong blog... my apologies)

Wanted to do something with some pork spareribs that wasn't a heavy Southwestern blend and that would complement smoking with Apple Wood chips:
  • 1/4 C Brown Sugar
  • 1 tsp ea:
    • Kosher Salt
    • Fresh Ground Black Pepper
    • Sweet Hungary Paprika
    • Crushed Marjoram
    • Ground Ginger
    • Ground Coriander
    • Ground Cloves
    • Crushed/Ground Fennel

Personally, I'd go on the light side (3/4 or less) with the Cloves and Fennel to help keep the more subtle apple wood flavor come out more.
