So my wife went to Whole Foods and spent one BTC on a brisket for me to smoke for company this weekend. I usually use some commercial rub that is rather spicy, but trying to go a safer route for other family members. Been researching online about just using a basic salt and pepper rub. There seems to be as much disagreement there as to the proper wheel size for a bike. (2.8" or wider is that answer, btw)
Anybody use a basic S&P rub? The next question becomes measure 50/50 by weight or by volume? Apparently salt is 4x as heavy as crushed pepper and this seems to be the crux of the online argument. How do you do a 50/50 mix, weight or volume?
Anybody?
