I have a friend that is allergic to all kinds of peppers. The only thing he can tolerate is Black Pepper. I don't know if any such rub exisits without peppers. I've been searching with little to no success. So, I have decided to return to the one place I should have started with in order to get some answers. Thanks for being here to ask. ~Rookie Forever

You can always make up a rub.

Here's mine:

Brown sugar, granulated garlic, onion powder, cumin, chili powder, black pepper, cayenne pepper, paprika.

Just omit the cayenne.

A rub is nothing more than mixed seasonings.

Make your own...it's dreadfully easy and the possibilities are endless.

One of the simplest rubs you can use is equal parts salt, pepper and garlic powder.

You could bump that up with any combination of spices or herbs.

He is allergic to ALL peppers? Paprika comes from pappers too. That may be something to omit as well.

Like Roxy said, start with the S,P,and G combo and work your way up from there.
