Rub Recipe For Smokin' Chicken - 01/09/17 08:20 PM

I got an Old Smokey#22 for Christmas and am eager to use it now that it is warming up this week. Figured I'd try some chicken first..breakin' it in so to speak. I have looked at a lot of rub recipe's on line and they are basically the same.
I like the ones with brown sugar in it tho. I'd like to make my own rub rather than buying some store bought stuff but I can't make up my mind on the ingredients that may please all.
You smokin' guru's out there care to divulge a descent rub recipe? I have two types of wood on hand now..pecan and oak. Been hearing about apple and peach. If you care to chime in ...please do.
Ed...out Galveston way.

and onion powder & paprika ... rub bird down with olive oil (or melted butter) and generously sprinkle seasonings on and rub ... I also like the idea of the melted butter & honey with spices mixed in, I might have to try that. I am not much into putting sweets on meat though, so I typically will only put the brown sugar and/or honey on those I don't plan on eating.

and if you want to get a different flavor profile, toss in some Cumin (or Comino) and ground rosemary.

Chili powder will give you the color and cumin.
