OMG that was really good! You don't need much and this recipe will last for many meals. It is also good on chicken or pork chops. Smear the filet with a little olive oil to hold the rub and then just add a little. Grill meat side down on a hot grill just enough to get sear marks and to caramelize the rub. About 3-4 minutes, then flip to skin side down to finish.

Memphis Dust Recipe from Meathead's BBQ forum

Yield. Makes about 3 cups. I typically use about 1 tablespoon per side of a slab of St. Louis cut ribs (edit: or salmon), and a bit less for baby backs. Store the extra in a zipper bag or a glass jar with a tight lid.
Preparation time. 10 minutes to find everything and 5 minutes to dump them together.

Ingredients
3/4 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
3/4 cup white sugar
1/2 cup paprika
1/4 cup Morton's kosher salt
1/4 cup garlic powder
2 tablespoons ground black pepper
2 tablespoons ground ginger powder
2 tablespoons onion powder
2 teaspoons rosemary powder


This looks delicious! I need to try this out.
