Memphis is known for many great things like Graceland, Beale Street, the blues, and OF COURSE BBQ!!! The folks over at Blues City Café, famous for its music and its Q, would love this awesome dry rub because it has that quintessential Memphis flavor. Strong hints of paprika, garlic and onion on the front end and a very mild spice on the back makes this rub a true Memphis staple.
