We really enjoyed this tasty rub. I served it on thick lean pork chops , which I roasted in the oven. Wow, were they ever good. I can't wait to try this rub on grilled chicken breasts. The rub was quick and easy to make with ingredients always found in my pantry. Thank you so much for sharing. Made for Spring Pac 2014.

This is a wonderful tasting rub. I plan to use it the next time I make roasted chicken on the rotisserie. Made for PAC Spring 2014.

Easy but a little too sweet for our family. We had it on very thick pork chops.

After reading BK's review knew I needed to try this. I served on boneless pork chops and grilled outside, so good and just that little different with the sweet and spicy combo. I did add a little extra cayenne pepper about a total of 1 teaspoon as DH likes his extra spicy and it was perfect for us. We'll be using this often when grilling season is here.
