Anything from Kosmos is pretty good. Killer Honey Bee is my go to for smoking chicken. Also quite good on ribs and pork shoulder. Their SPC is a staple for grilling steaks and burgers.

Cause there is something dead wrong about a man who will not rub his own meat..... The sicko!! :bolt: :cool:
It is usually better if someone else handles your meat for you, Unlike you guys, I prefer women. :P

True story. I smoked brisket one time and was all out of rub and didn’t want to make a new batch so I used a 50/50 mixture of coarse ground pepper and sea salt.
It was the best I’d ever made. Still to this day.
I’m too scared it won’t be any good to try it again

Here is the special rub I do myself.
I mix this batch up and it will last me a while.

2 cups paprika
1/4 cup kosher salt, finely ground
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons mustard powder
1/4 cup chili powder
1/4 cup ground cumin
2 tablespoons ground black 8pepper
1/4 cup granulated garlic
2 tablespoons cayenne

Here are the ribs I smoked today. So Yummy!!!

One thing I’ve experimented a little with and want to more is smoking seasonings. Last time I smoked meat I also put in a pan of coarse salt to make smoked salt. It has a great flavor. Started with salt since it was easy but would be interested if you could do something like that with garlic and then use a spice grinder to break it down into a rub
Take the skin off the cloves and put them on cold smoke in a covered grill with a pellet tube. It won’t cook the garlic so you can cook it later to sweeten it if you want.
Same process to cold smoke cheese in the dead of winter.

I didn’t use a rub either on a brisket to win 5th place in the Okla state championship cook off.
Marinated with a 50/50 mix of teriyaki and soy sauce with a 10 % add of Worcestershire, adding lots of fresh crushed garlic and black pepper to the sauce.

That’s honestly how I cook all my briskets. I just use a mixture of salt, pepper, and a tiny bit of granulated garlic. You should try it again sometime
