Hi Bryan, I'll try to post my recipe for Larb Moo (Spicy Ground Pork Salad) in the next few days.
Meantime, regarding your quest for a Thai-flavored dry rub, it would interest you to know that FritoLay is doing big business here with their Lays potato chips. To tap the Thai people's love for spicy, flavorful snacks, they've concocted a few Thai-inspired potato chip flavors such as Mien Kam (the appetizer dish I described in my first post on this thread), sweet basil & chili, and another flavor I can't quite recall (it wasn't so good anyway). My favorite is the Mien Kam flavor -- basically the taste is tangy, sweet, sour, salty, hot with the flavor of lime and other spices. The sweet basil & chili flavor is quite good too and tastes exactly like what it says but sweetish.
