RUB CALCULATOR

BBQ Rub Calculator

Pick a cut and a rub, enter your meat weight, and get exact amounts, scaled from the recipes built into the Pitwright app.

Texas Classic, 12 lb Brisket

  • 2 tbspKosher salt · about 17 g
  • 2 tbspCoarse black pepper

Salt is shown by weight because volume varies by brand. Grams are specified for Diamond Crystal kosher; use about half the volume for Morton.

How the scaling works

Each rub is dialed in for a typical weight of that cut, then scaled up or down to your exact weight. Amounts round to the nearest quarter unit, and anything below a quarter teaspoon is flagged rather than rounded up and over-seasoned. It is the same math the Pitwright app runs during a cook.

This is the quick version. In the app the rub travels with your cook, and the live timeline, alarms, and log carry the rest.
