I am late to the party, but I like the new path forward. (and I, like a lot of others, extend my appreciation to Mike the "Kind of good admin". Maybe it's time to upgrade that title to to "Decent bordering on high quality admin"? just a thought...ha ha)

At least you know what a pork steak is! Originally from the desert of NM, and now in the swamps LA, I do not believe I have heard of such a cut!

Thank you! (and you are a gentleman for not ridiculing me!!)

At the risk of showing my ignorance, what are "CPTs"? (I am familiar with the Meater, Inkbird, and Smoke, but I have not heard the acronym 'CPT'.) Thank you.

I use Heffer Dust on brisket, and dino ribs, and I will usually add some of the Pecan Rub mentioned above. (all of the ones listed by @Stratratbj96 are pretty GREAT!) I would compare the Heffer Dust to SPG with some paprika, and maybe a hint of something else, but I can't name it. I am glad...
