Willingham's W'ham Seasoning - Original Mild

I was given this rub by my mother-in-law whose father used it religiously prior to his passing. Not that heritage matters but my MIL's father was Afr. American and he knew how to season up some meats on the grill/smoker. I tried a self made rub that just didn't cut it. This rub has all the boldness and subtle flavors for a really nice smoked ribs. I have a hybrid method that I learned from chef on food network that calls for boiling the ribs to about 198 or so degrees (but DO NOT EXCEED 200 degrees) then while the slabs are still hot with the sweat of the slight boiling water I sprinkle this rub on liberally evenly and allow it to sit for about 15-20 minutes to allow the seasons to absorb. I have my smoker all set outside and cook these indirect smoke method so they never get direct heat under them. I use various woods for the smoke and usually soak them in water the night before so they slow burn instead of engulfing when they hit coals. When I make several slabs I stack them on each other as high as the grill lid will allow me. I then just alternate each slab so they get evenly cooked and the juices run on the lower ribs. The final temp for the ribs needs to be about 210 and this usually takes about 2 hours to 2.5 hours. This is a shorter method as you precook the ribs in the water. The hybrid method definitely eliminates the long smoke time you'd normally have. The smoke and heat will cook the ribs like they've been on the smoker for hours and your hungry family and friends will never know you didn't spend 5+ hours at the smoker! The only thing you are doing is cutting down your cooking time which is valuable to many of us. Good luck and enjoy!

Tye BEST!! We have been using this for over 20 years!

I Love this on steak and especially my Sausage and Chesse Trays.

We use this most of the time as our 'go-to' all purpose seasoning. I am very fussy with spices; my husband and I love this!! The BBQ flavor is not overwhelming, and has a very tasty flavor. Compliments all our food, especially pork - course! Highly recommended!! :-)

Awesome seasoning. You can use it on just about anything.

I like Willinghams, been using it for years. I use this as my base rub and add a few things to it for a flavor profile I like a bit better.

What a great rub. Just tried it on ribs based on a friend's suggestion. Rub only and no sauce needed.

Great seasoning. Although I did have one that moisture got into it. And got chunky on me. Good seasoning thou
