Hawaiian Pork Rib Rub

Hawaiian style pork stands firmly on the pork flavor. With a spice rub like this to enhance the flavors, you can keep it simple and yet make something spectacular. Use this Hawaiian Pork Rib Rub on any cut of pork, but it is scaled to a single full rack of ribs. Double, triple or more for the number of racks you are cooking.
