I've tried it many ways, but prefer to rub on the CYM first, then dust
with the "rub." Mixing the rub and CYM together makes the mustard
thicker, and thus I end up with too much mustard on the meat. My
preference is to put a tbsp or so of CYM in my hand, then rub it over
the ribs or butt, squeegeeing off as much as reasonable with my hand.
To me, the thinner the CYM is on the meat, the better the results but
YMMV.
