question about rubs
What exactly is a finishing rub? I heard it on the BBQ pit masters, and seen it on a few forums.
also Is it the same as the first rub applied to your meat?
is there any advantage to using it?
Thanks

Re: finishing rub
No it is different, and used to build a layer of flavors. Some ingredients like herbs don't hold up under long cooks, so adding a "Finishing Rub" with those ingredients towards the end of the cook give a more complex flavor.
Never met a cow I didn't like with a little salt and pepper.

Be careful on how much you use though, it can alter the flavor big time.

I tend to just dust things over a bit with the spices I use in the rub,if any.
More sugar and salt are seldom needed at the end of the cook.

Re: finishing rub
Also, most finishing rubs are finely ground and will almost disappear when you sprinkle them on.

Re: finishing rub
I am going to get a coffee grinder and try making some of my own finishing rub.

Re: finishing rub
My wife and kids got me a small coffee grinder, and I use it to grind spices. I tried it for a finish rub. I love this toy, and recomend it for anyone doing rubs and spice blends.
