Great recipe. A nice blend of flavors, neither too spicy nor too bland. I'll make up little jars for gifts!

This was good but not great in my opinion. My husband liked it better than I did. We used it on New York Strip steaks. I will keep looking for that "special" rub recipe.

I've made this twice, and its great! I mix all the powders and put it in an extra herb shaker that I've emptied, then shook the rub all over country western pork ribs......let it marinate for a few hours and let it set on the counter for an hour to come up in temperature. Then I steam them for an hour and when I'm ready to go, I grill them with a little sauce on them (I've used both barbecue and caribbean jerk sauce from Buffalo Wild Wings) Both times they came out excellent! I will always have this on hand, especially during grilling season! :)

This is a very spicy rub and was on the edge for me; the men in my family all loved it. They are asking for more and again! When I make this again I will definitely cut the cumin wayyyy down. I used this on baby back ribs. I rubbed them down, sealed them in foil and threw them in the fridge for two days. I then threw them into a 350 oven for 2 hours. The meat was so tender it was all but falling off the bone. Great tenderizer! The ribs were good as is but we elected to go ahead and wet them down with barbecue sauce. Old habits die hard. I was a bit heavy handed with the rub and next time will use sparingly. This is a good rub and not your typical sweet, bland seasoning salt. This is an officially awesome rub that separates the men from the boys.

I have to agree with other reviewers the cumin taste in this is way too strong. I halved it and still felt it was over powering. If I make again I will quarter it. I also havlved the chili power, but didn't find the rub had much spice so if I use the remaining rub I will add more. I used the rub on steaks. They did have a lot of flavor and were tender and juicy, so it has potential if you cut the cumin back.

This was a very good rub. I used it on a whole chicken that I put on my rotisserie. It gave the chicken a really good taste. I want to try it on some steaks next to see if it's just as good.

This is the most versital rub I've found yet. We all love it and I'm going to try to leave the salt out of one to see if it would suit my brother-in-law who is on a low-sodium diet.

Very good rub - I do have to agree that a little less cumin might be in order, but very yummy! Goes well on any type of meat.
