I've made 2 batches, both different but with similar ingredients.  Basically they are salt, sugar(brown and/or white), garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, chili powder, cumin, season salt, dry mustard, cinnamon, ground clove and basically anything you've got. I made mine for slow cooking Boston butts but have used it of sashimi grade tuna, chicken and other things. Some folks put ground coffee in it too but I haven't.
 Check out a Dollar Store of similar for cheap spices.

Had seared tuna for supper tonight that I added the rub about 1 hour before cooking. I got the skillet hot, added about a teaspoon of canola oil and seared the tuna until it had about 1/8" cooked then flipped it until cooked about the same with about 3/4" uncooked in the center. Man oh man it don't get much better. Had it with white rice and a rago (sp) with yellow squash, onion, garlic, mushrooms and grape tomatoes, salt and pepper and a dash of Worcestershire sauce..  -C-
My wife likes to add a little sauce made from mayo and mango pulp balsamic vinegar over the seared tuna. I prefer it without.

Look in the frozen fish section. All of what I get is frozen and vacuum packed on the boat. We buy a few at a time when it goes on sale.

I keep trying it on different proteins(chicken, pork, fish)  and so far I haven't been disappointed. On meat I plan to slow cook(Boston Butt) I'll add a heavy coat of the rub 24 hours before cooking and keep it in the frig. For the tuna I sprinkled some on both sides within 15 minutes of cooking. Because it has so many flavors you'll have to judge how much to suit your taste.

Trapper,
You might want to add in some thyme, tarragon, a bit of sage, ground Rosemary, and parsley, or is it parsley, sage, Rosemary, and thyme >:D -C-, then tarragon.  Be glad to send you some tarragon! PM me your address and I will mail some out.  I like to use a bit of sea salt, as well.  Maybe I will open a thread for marinades, got to be some good ones out there!
