Extreme Newbie - Using Rubs
I am completely new to smoking meat. I have done burgers, hot dogs, chicken legs, etc. over charcoal grills, but never have I smoked a brisket, salmon, etc. I decided I needed to buy a pellet grill and up my game, so I have one ordered. I know it's a stupid question, but how do you apply the rub? I have seen shaker bottles of rub, and big bags of rub. Some pictures looks like its sprinkled on, and some look like its poured on (completely covered in it). How much do you put on and when? Do you actually "rub" it in?
Teach me
Also, are there good home made rub recipe's?
