I was wondering where you went :) Your ingredients list is very similar to my pork rub. It's still a work in progress for sure, but my next step is going to be replacing the brown sugar completely with turbinado sugar. I haven't started adding the aromatics to mine yet either but will on my next batch...
Nhut Duong You have to use less, how much less is the question. Since they are so fine the volume will be different. Start low, 1/4 cup and work up to the best taste.
