Kansas City Style Rib Rub

I started last year making a lot of my own seasoning mixes. There is just too much sodium in the mixes you buy at the store. A lot of these recipes came from 101budget.com, If you haven't checked out her site you have to, there is so much there.
The first one I am post thou is from Food Network. I love this seasoning mix, it's great on chicken, steak and makes the most awesome pulled pork.
You will need to try this, it's so great. I don't add all the salt that is required.


Kansas City Style Rib Rub:

1/3 cup light brown sugar
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup paprika

Sitting here watching Sleepy Hollow, dinner is in the crockpot today. Nice hot meal for a cool rainy day. We are having Jerk Pork Roast, red beans and rice. And I can not wait. 
I use Paula Dean's recipe for Jerk seasoning. 
Now I didn't have a scotch bonnet pepper so I just added a bit of ancho chili powder, since I don't like it too hot I didn't add much. 
I put it on my pork roast the day before, so it can marinate over night. Cook in the crockpot on low for 8 hours and you have some delicious meat. LOVE it. 

Jerk Spice:
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground allspice
1 teaspoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon dried, crushed Scotch bonnet pepper
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon dried chives
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme

Combine all ingredients in a bowl until well-mixed. Store in an airtight container.

Yield: 1/2 cup
