Smokin' and others,
I have searched for Smokin's Memphis style rub to no avail. The links that Smokin' posted back in '02 are now defunct. Is this the same rub that was posted HERE as Rendezvous rub?

Do you guys have any additional tips/tricks/suggestions on how to make GREAT Memphis style dry ribs? I know I'm beating a dead horse...sorry.

The Rendezvous used to buy up all the 20 oz loin backs in north Ms,south Arkansas and west Tn.

Like Smokin says,we're talkin' more technique than recipe.

I'd say if you bought the smallest loinbacks you could find at Sam's and prep them correctly,this would be a start.

Coat lightly with Cavender's[ the spicey] about an hour before cooking.

I'd probably cook them hot and open the door every hour,to let out moisture.

Cook until done,and serve with a thin red sauce at the table.

A small shaker of the rub,for the diner to apply.

In Memphis, they put it on corn on the cob,popcorn,in the slaw,etc.

These are just thoughts to attempt to get to the original.

You could just cook them like Smokin's Ribs 101,finish them under the broiler,and give a light sprinkle of rub-to taste.

Hope this helps a little.
