Very good and easy.

VERY SPICY!!!! I doubled the brown sugar and it was still way too hot for my liking. Unless you like extremely spicy food, stay away from this one!

Please note that the recipe as posted is misprinted! The authors must have meant to write "one tablespoon cayenne pepper". Perhaps the black pepper is misprinted as well. As written, this recipe will obliterate your ribs with inedible spicyness. Adjust the recipe before you make it!

My husband and I love pork ribs and we love hot food, but this rub ruined our ribs. It was way too hot. Not a good rub for ribs.

My family and I love to BBQ on weekends. After experimenting on several recipes, I still haven't found the right one that I like, until I chanced upon this one. I really like its simplicity, no fancy stuff like in gourmet cooking. The best thing that I like is that it taste like the kind of food I order at Friday's.

This worked well for us EXCEPT for the salt which we cut in half. For a wet glaze, we add vinegar and extra red pepper to it.

Ok I am giving this recipe a second 5 star rating. Tried it this time with a half rack of spare ribs. Rubbed it on them and wrapped tight in foil like the Baby Back Ribs recipe and then the next day instead of baking, i put more charcoal on the grill then normal so it would burn longer, threw some soaked hickory chip on there and put the ribs on there raw. Left the air holes open about 1/4 of the way and didnt open the lid at all for about 45 mins, at that point i checked them and then opened the vents about half way. Basted with kraft honey bbq this time. awesome. the brown sugar and hickory sweet baby rays was a better sauce combo with this dry rubs flavor though, but this recipe is fantastic.

I love pork ribs and was excited to use this rub. With three pounds of ribs, and using FOUR servings of the rub, I was blown away by how HOT this came out. Used 1/4 cup of cayenne and pepper with 1/2 cup brown sugar. What on earth did I do wrong? Had to cook the rub off in hot water on the stove before adding bbq sauce. :(

Delicious, quick, easy & doesn't burn (on the grill that is!) I used proportions suggested by one reviewer and still found the ribs to be way to spicy for me. But the rest of the family, who love spicy foods, loved it. They thought it bordered on too spicy so next time I will tone it down even more but this will definately be my go-to recipe for pork ribs from now on.

This recipe is so easy to prepare. Ingredients are simple and readily available in my kitchen. I prepared the rib in the oven at 350F and baked it for about 40 minutes. The meat was still juicy and the taste was delicious!

I haven't had ribs this good in a long time. I reduced cayenne and black pepper down to about one and a half table spoons. Only very slightly spicy. My wife and I thank you.

The flavor on this recipe was great, but WOW it was HOT! I am about average on resistance to heat and can handle some serious Thai, etc. I cut the ingredients in half as I only had (4) decent size pork ribs. I cooked on the grill on medium-high heat and they were juicy and delicious. Would make again but likely dial down the cayenne a bit. However, I must be a glutton for punishment because I still ate half the ribs!

I think if I were to cut down the amount of Cayenne, that would have made a difference! The ribs were very good with the rub, but too hot for the kids!

I used this recipe on pork ribs and it was excellent!! I also used only about 1/2 of the cayenne pepper and it was still a little more spicy than I wanted it, but overall I will definitely use this recipe again.

Was the amount of pepper and cayenne right??? It was waaaaay too hot, I couldn't get past two bites and neither could anyone in my family. Also the brown sugar gave it an odd texture on our tongues. Sorry, sadly disapointed with this one.

Wow, this is a great recipe. If you don't like it so hot, just put less Cayenne in.

Really good, but my guests thought it was a little spicy.

I think this was a great combination, however I did change the amount of the ingredients, and added a few that were recomended by others. So it turned out to be 3/4 cup brown sugar 1/4 tsp cayane, pepper to tase (I used a lot) 2tsp salt 1/2 tsp garlic powder and onion powder. I used it first on pork ribs, and it was good, except I over cooked them. Oops, and then tonight on a pork loin roast WOW that was great! Thanks for a good recipe.
