Have you guys tried Turbinado Sugar or Sugar in the Raw? It's sugar with a much higher flash point than white or brown sugar. Therefore it will not burn as quickly when used in a rub. I highly recommend it.

Also, I never put salt in my rubs. I salt separately. Allows me to control the salt a little better. I never use garlic salt, onion salt, etc. Basically, if say I'm doing ribs. Pull them out of the marinade, pat dry, sprinkle some coarse salt on each side and apply the rub.
