Barbeque Rub Recipes
In Memphis it is common for the best rib joints to serve their ribs "dry", without sauce, just a liberal sprinkling of spices and herbs. The most revered dry ribs are served at Charlie Vergos' Rendezvous (called "The Vous" by the locals). In fact, the Vous is probably the most popular ribjoint in the world. Notice I didn't say the best ribjoint in the world.
Baby backs are the cut of choice
and they are sprinkled liberally with their top secret seasoning. "We
call it a seasoning, not a rub, because it is sprinkled on, not rubbed
in," says Nick Vergos, Charlie's grandson.
Because The Vous is so famous and
popular, people, especially the media, are always asking the owners for
their seasoning recipe. But, and I know this might shock some of you,
the one they give out is most definitely not the one they use in the restaurant or sell in the bottle! Yet the bogus recipe is all over the internet.
