Best Dry Rub for Ribs
Grilling out is my passion, and there are few things I enjoy more than ribs on the grill. Spare ribs, baby back ribs, beef ribs – you name it, I love grilling ribs!
My secret to the most flavorful ribs is my rib rub with brown sugar recipe. This is the best dry rub for ribs I have ever had, and I guarantee you will feel the same way. It's sweet and salty with a little kick of heat. Pair it with your favorite BBQ sauce and you'll be obsessed!
Why is this brown sugar rib rub famous? Well, because literally any of my friends who have tried it, will never use another rub on their ribs! Give my rib seasoning a try and I know you'll want to keep a jar of it on hand every time you grill out.
Brown Sugar Rib Rub Ingredients
- brown sugar, packed
- onion powder
- garlic powder
- creole seasoning
- black pepper
- paprika
- salt preferably Himalayan sea salt
- cumin
- chili powder
- mustard powder
The best rubs start with sugar. I love brown sugar as a base for rib seasoning because it caramelizes as it cooks. Sweet flavors and pork are a perfect match. Adding in paprika gives it a tasty, earthy kick. It's sweet and salty with a little bit of spice and brightness.
Definitely use Himalayan sea salt if you have access to it. This fine salt is perfect for rubs because it gives it amazing flavor without the larger salt chunks.
Rib Rub Recipe FAQs
How do you season ribs before cooking?
Cover the entire rack with rib seasoning and pat down. It's called a rub for a reason – rub, rub, rub, and pat, pat, pat your seasoning down on both sides! Give it a nice coating!
Should I put a dry rub on my ribs overnight?
Perfect ribs start with delicious seasoning and letting it marinate overnight is great. If you don't have enough time, a couple of hours will also work.
On a large rimmed baking sheet, season your ribs all over with your spice rub for ribs and refrigerate overnight. The ribs will absorb the flavor of the rub better this way.
What do you put on ribs before rubbing?
You won't need anything extra other than our BBQ rib rub to season the meat. At the 1 hour mark of cooking, you'll brush the ribs with barbecue sauce.
Is this brown sugar rib rub recipe gluten-free?
Yes, it is!
How long does rib seasoning last?
This is the best rib rub recipe – it will last up to 6 months in an airtight container in a cool, dark place, or in the refrigerator. Store it in a jar with a label and the date.
