Ed, I have had Memphis Dust on my list to try. I use Jeffs secret rub on everything and have used it for years. But now with the SI I would like to experiment with some others. Seems like the SI brings out the creativity in all of us.

I tried the unsalted version of Memphis Dust, on a brined pork butt, and wasn't impressed.  It's just too bland for my taste (and the family agreed).  I'll stick with Dave's, or Jeff Phillip's rub.  I may even come up with my own version! ;)

Well I couldn't get Daves Rub at Walmart. They don't carry it. Since everyone likes it so much I might just buy it online. I will still try Memohis Dust as well. I am with you Tony. I like to taste the rub in the bark. Not just salt and sugar, but the blended spices. Let's see what you can come up with Tony. I for one will try it.

It was Famous Dave's rub for my first smoke.   Two thumbs up.

Here it is in a smaller bottle:

I have a cupboard full of different seasonings and haven't found anything that I like better.

Tony, if you can handle the cayenne and chili powder memphis dust is not for you.  My family likesthe memphis dust.

I do like famous dave's rib rub. Not spicy imo at all.

Ed, the Memphis Dust has a great flavor profile, but if I try it again, I'm gonna have to "kick it up a notch," as Emeril says! ;)

I really like Memphis Dust on my ribs but just not enough flavor for pulled pork or pork loin. I stick with Famous Dave's for those. I did pick up a new Butt rub that will try soon, it's called Excalibur Butt Rub Kansas City style.

I think I have the same rub. I love Excalibur seasonings and my go to seasoning is Excalibur Smokehouse BBQ seasoning. I buy it in 5lb bulk bags.

I got this Kansas City Rump Rub from my last Walton's Inc order for free because I ordered enough stuff.

I haven't tried it yet, but it will be in my next butt.

I definitely will. I have a butt in the freezer with it's name on it. But, I have Canadian Bacon loins brining in the fridge and don't really have room in the fridge for more meat. I really need a dedicated meat fridge. Plus it is freezing ass cold up here this week, and while the smoker can definitely handle the temps, I'm not excited about the prep and cleanup in -15 plus weather. ;)

Ask and ye shall receive.

The Kansas City Rump Rub has MSG, so not so good for you Tony. I'll get this rub tested and reviewed some time in January.

But the Excalibur BBQ Smokehouse seasoning is MSG free. :)
