Looking for suggestions on a good all purpose BBQ rub. I have been using an all purpose meat church rub that i like but looking for something different. Any suggestions on your favorite?

SPOG is still the GOAT if you ask me. From there you can doctor it up anyway you want.

Make your own and figure out what you like best. I started a long time ago with a few different rub recipes and just played with them figuring out what flavors I like best with ribs chicken and pork. I use a very simple recipe for brisket.

BBQ sauces
BBQ Sauce by TD-Rat
Makes 2 quarts
Cooking time 2 hours 30 minutes
Ingredients:
1 Cup Yellow Mustard
1 Cup Vegetable Oil
2 1/2 cups dried chopped onions (8 ounces, by weight), or 5 pounds of fresh onion, chopped
5 cups warm water
10 ounce bottle Worcestershire sauce
1 cup ketchup
6 Tablespoons Tomato Paste
3/4 cup Chili Sauce
6 Tablespoons sugar
1/4 cup margarine
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons smoked paprika
1 teaspoon Louisiana hot sauce
1 teaspoon chili powder
Directions:
Pour warm water over the dried onions in a bowl and allow to rehydrate for 30 minutes.
In a pot of suitable size, put all the ingredients, including the warm water and simmer for 2 hours or more, until the onions are very soft.
For basting sauce, take a portion of the sauce and add an equal amount of vegetable oil and heat. Use the top part of this mixture (the oil) for basting on the grill. The thicker sauce on the bottom can be painted on the meat during the last few minutes of cooking or served with the meat as a table sauce.
Notes:
This sauce is very similar to the two famous Ville Platte BBQ sauces. Jack Miller’s and Pig Stand. The recipe was reverse engineered based on the ingredients list and some knowledge of how a similar sauce was made.
Pig Stand BBQ sauce is slightly sweeter than Jack Miller’s Sauce
Razor’s BBQ Sauce
1 Bottle Ketchup
Same amount of Red Wine Vinegar
Same amount of water
1/3 Bottle Worcestershire Sauce
2 Tablespoons Mustard (not sweet!)
2 Teaspoons Salt
2 Teaspoons Black Pepper
2 or 3 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
Cayenne Pepper to Taste
Feel free to add garlic or onion powder, cumin, or whatever you like. The above is the basic sauce I use the most.
Mix ingredients in a pot on medium heat, stirring often. When bubbles begin to rise, remove from heat and let cool. Pour into bottles.
Good with pork and chicken, I wouldn't put in on beef (but hey, you can try it!).
When grilling or smoking, apply sauce often, but never over direct heat, as the sauce will caramelize and burn quickly.
Sub’s BBQ Sauce
1 Stick Butter
1/2 onion
1 1/2 cup Ketchup
1/2 cup Apple Cider Vinegar
1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
1 teaspoon Kosher salt
1 teaspoon Black Pepper
1 teaspoon Chili Powder
1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1 teaspoon Cumin
1/2 lemon, juiced
Combine all ingredients in a saucepan and heat to a simmer. Hold at temperature, stirring for a few minutes, then cool and bottle. Store in a sealed container in refrigerator.

If you want something that is different, try Willingham's W'ham seasoning. It has a different flavor profile with a little acidic kick.

I love willinghams original for a different taste. It’s actually the only store brand bbq rub I buy. I normally make my own. It definitely has some type of acid that tastes like Worcestershire to me, I’ve always wondered if it had Worcestershire solids.

Third ingredient is Sodium Diacetate which Wiki tells me is a "salt of acetic acid."
Also has malic and citric acid down the ingredient list.

It has tamarind extract and citric acid (which is listed twice). That could be it. Worcestershire has tamarind as well.

The ap is really good on pork loin chops . I cut them 1.5-2” and grill over charcoal to 135-140.

There's a recipe online for Malcolm's recipe. I'm not sure how it compares to the branded blend but, I've made it a couple times and like it.
I've also modified it a bit by subbing out a couple of ingredients like five spice powder for the jerk seasoning and 1/2 of the paprika I sub smoked paprika. It's great on ribs.
