Texas BBQ Rub

Texas BBQ Rub  Within large regional barbecue areas, there are variations of barbecue styles and Texas is no different, in this respect.  Texas barbecue is mainly beef and got started around the mid 1800’s.  It can be divided into four regions: West Texas, more of a “cowboy style” barbecue with indirect heat using mesquite, East Texas cooks with hickory, slow “falling off the bone” style barbecue with a sweet tomato based sauce, Central Texas is cooked with pecan and/or oak wood and is spice rubbed and South Texas uses a thick molasses style barbecue sauce and they use the barbacoa tradition of cooking in a hole dug in the ground.   Texas barbecue is mostly beef and it's BEEF Brisket!  Spice Ingredients: Demerara sugar, New Mexican chile peppers, hickory smoked sea salt, chipotle chile peppers, cumin and mustard seeds.
