A Carolina BBQ Rub

I tried this rub recipe a couple of weeks ago for a pork rib roast. I followed the recipe except for the cayenne pepper (I didn't have any) so I substituted a few drops of Louisiana hot sauce. After rubbing the mix on to the roast, I let it marinade overnight in the fridge. After marinating, I slow roasted it outside on my grill. After igniting the coals using a chimney starter, I arranged the coals in a single file around the perimeter of the grill, & placed the roast in the center. I turned the roast over every 30 minutes. In 3 hours, it was so tender that when I tried to remove the roast with a fork, all I did was make some of the meat flake off! I got compliments not only from my family, but also the neighbors who were downwind from me. I was a good neighbor & gave them a few slices & they told me it tasted even better than it smelled! I made another batch and am trying it on some country style pork ribs! The photo is what was left of a 2 lb. roast after my family of 3 + 3 slices for the neighbors.
