Sugarless Rubs?

ddog27 · 11-07-2005, 01:43 PM

I am going to cook some BBQ for my Dad and he is diabetic. Does anyone have a good rub recipe that does not have sugar in it? I haven't found one I like in the BBQ books I have. Any help would be appreciated!

Darren if your Dad can have splenda, use that. I use it for my wife, she's a diabetic too and can't tell a considerable difference.

I know this sounds simple, but, salt and pepper is very good on ribs, Dog!!

I agree with Larry-Splenda works-try the brown sugar type.
I think this link will work-some good recipes.

I eliminated sugar in my rubs about a year ago because my wife is diabetic, I'm going to have to watch her at a cook off when she judges. She has to watch her carb intake and all that days before a judging. I still have not found a rub I like since the elimination of sugar, Pony up boy's if you can help.
