Rub suggestions

Sounds like a tasty rub.

I like to do my rubs up with a touch of molasses, for flavor and ease of application.

I also find a presoak in vinegar for a while to greatly increase tenderness.

I would probably replace chipotle powder with paprika unless I was going specifically for chipotle flavor. Maybe just a touch of sage, & a dash of red chile, too.
