2 1/4 cups paprika (for color)

1 cup sugar

2 tablespoons celery powder

2 tablespoons onion powder

1 tablespoons garlic powder

1 cup black pepper

1 tablespoon powdered vegetable oil

Directions

  1. Add all of the rub ingredients to a small bowl or container and mix well. To make this a special spicy rub, add 2 tablespoons cayenne pepper. Now you have a real rockin' rub! Heat a smoker to 225 degrees F. Generously rub the entire butt with 1 1/2 cups Johnny's All-Purpose Seasoning. Put it in a pan, cover and refrigerate overnight. Remove pork from the refrigerator, uncover and put it in the smoker for approximately 7 to 8 hours. Remove the pork from the smoker to a cutting board and pull pork apart while still hot. You are now ready to serve it your favorite way.
  2. (Use this on everything) .

I have done this recipe in the oven for 2 hours and it came out perfect. I used the rub only to cote it very good on all sides, not all the rub with witch I end up. The rub is great thou the quantity is huge, so I divide all the ingredients in half and still I end up with 511 grams of rub; so I will have the rub for a 2 years probably. Next time probably I will divide all the ingredients in 4. As a side I have done the coleslaw.
