Rib Rub, Take 1

Ben's Apple Cider Ribs are as close to pork perfection as I've tried. But, I've got to mix it up and do something I can call my own. These are intended as a fall recipe to be served with maple roasted yams. The yam recipe is going to pretty sweet as it is, so I'm hoping to keep these more savory to balance the dish.

Ingredients
1 tablespoon cumin (or coriander for Cindy)
1 tablespoon paprika
1 large garlic clove, crushed
1 medium shallot, finely chopped
1 tablespoon Alton Brown's recipe chili powder
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2 tablespoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon white pepper
Enough oil to form paste.

Rub on and refrigerate for several hours if possible.
