You should try that recipe for ribs, it's not nearly as sweet as you'd think when finished.

I don't use sugar on beef, a simple SPG will work great.
I have used just about every combination there is including sugar.
The sugar I just keep separate until I mix it in the rub if I want to.
This allows me leeway with the rub.
