This rub, adapted from Big Flavors of the Hot Sun (Morrow, 1994), is a
little sweet, a little hot, with just a hint of clove. It can be used on

just about anything that you plan to barbecue, that is, to cook over low,
indirect heat for a long period of time. For large red-meat roasts, such

as leg of lamb or standing rib, increase the cayenne pepper from one
teaspoon to one tablespoon and substitute one teaspoon cinnamon for the
ground cloves.
