Editors' Picks: Gourmet Barbecue Rubs

The MyRecipes team tried almost 20 different varieties of gourmet rubs to kick off grilling season. Many feature traditional spices, like paprika and brown sugar, but we have a couple zingers, too, so keep your eyes peeled for great flavors.

We tried the rubs on grilled pork tenderloin, scored 'em out of 3, and then tallied the numbers to give you our top picks.

And don't forget to check out our video for a behind-the-scenes, no-holds-barred peek at our tasting.
