This is an approximation of what I use for dry rub on ribs. I don't think I left anything out.
4 tbsp paprika 4 tbsp brown sugar 1 tbsp black pepper 1 tbsp chili powder 1 tbsp salt 1 tsp garlic powder 1 tsp onion powder ½ tsp cumin ½ tsp cayenne or red pepper(pick the hotness) I grind it up with pestle and mortar and put it in an old spice jar so I can sprinkle through the holes in the lid. Rinse the ribs and pat dry. Sprinkle liberally and pat in. Cover and let come to room temp while coals getting ready. When coals are ready, stack on one side of the grill(Weber) and put a drip pan to fill the other 2/3 of the grill---I get the disposable roasting pans for that. Slap a few big chunks of hickory on the coals and place the ribs over the drip pan, which is now filled with beer and water. The pan serves 2 purposes-1) keeps the coals piled to one side and 2)keeps moisture in the grill when smoking. After the hickory catches fire, put on the lid with the vent open and start to drinkin' beers. Check the coals every 30- 45 minutes and add more fresh coals and hickory when needed---might have to stir them up to help the new stuff light. Also a perfect opportunity to use what's left of your beer to spritz the ribs. I put my thumb over the top of the beer and shake it then turn upside down and gently release pressure. The beer squirts around real pretty like. Make sure to turn the ribs about midway through cooking to put the other side closer to the coals---keeps from overdoing one end. I've never overcooked them this way. The longer you cook the better they get. Usually 2-2 ½ hours. Happy eating! Recipe, please. Private mail is fine. A.

I prefer to mix up my own Creole seasoning when I'm cooking, but I guess either Tony Chachere's or Emeril's would do for dusting tiggers.
