Godfather Rub

1/2 cup Salt
1/2 cup Sugar
1/2 cup Brown Sugar
1/2 cup Cumin
1/2 cup Chilli Powder
1/2 cup Black Pepper
1/2 cup Granulated Garlic
1/4 cup Cayenne
1 cup Paprika
 
That does look real good.  I may have to make a mini batch. 

I have to see how the spice reacts with my heart burn.
 
I would say the 1/4 cup does pack a punch. Its really a question of "how much" rub are you putting on. For example on a pork butt - this is fine - pack it on thick for a nice bark.

For ribs, I personally love it; however as a litmus test my wife won't jump up and down for that much... and my 6 & 8 year olds will eat it  but ask for milk ;-)

My point being its not tough... but i fyou have heart burn, GER, or are looing to serve a crowd.... I would sprinkle it on the ribs versus dousing it.
 
Hey PQ, doing a 12 lb butt this weekend for a crowd. They're not big spice folks. What heat level will I get if I cut the cayenne in half? Or does the meat amount cut it considerably?
 
Heat is low low low.

If you smoke a 10 lb butt the rub will turn into a nice bark.

You could apply less rub.

oR

What I do at times is create burnt ends.  Cut off outside bark and another inch,,, cube it up.
Then pull the rest.
