Kansas City Barbecue Rub

Kansas City Barbecue Dry Rub

An excellent dry rub for use on pork shoulder, baby back ribs, St. Louis ribs and much more.
This recipe is my adaptation of a recipe by Steve Raichlen in his book, Barbecue Bible Sauces Rubs and Marinades, Bastes, Butters and Glazes (What a title?). Steve, in turn, was given the recipe by the Kansas City Barbecue Society. I have modified it for my tastes.
