Billy's Rib Rub:
- Combine all the ingredients in a medium bowl, and stir to combine. Be sure to crumble any lumps that may form with the sugar or spices. Use for meats and seafood to be grilled, as well as for making the barbecue sauce. Any unused rub may be stored in an airtight container and kept in a cool, dry place for up to 6 weeks.
Mango Barbeque Sauce:
- Combine all the ingredients in a saucepan and bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Cook for 10 minutes, cool and refrigerate in a re-sealable plastic container. This sauce will keep for at least one month in the fridge.
