Essentially 2 types of Rubs-With sugar and without.
Sugar strengthens meat fibres and gives a tougher bite while developing a dark crust. I like to apply these types of Rubs over a longer time period.
Generally speaking I do not use sugar rubs on ribs
I use sugar rubs on meat and fish items that are inherently more tender to prevent them from falling apart.
Non sugar rubs I generally like to apply 45 minutes to 1 hour before hand.
