Help with Char Crust

I found a source for Char Crust and bought a pack of "original hickory". I've got some thick fillets for tonight, now should I use this stuff as rub and slther that with mustard, or just the Char Crust alone? If I give it the usual pyrotechnics, will I burn the Char Crust black? Being as how it is mostly salt, can you get too liberal with this? Thanks for any advice.

    Frozen Chosen, I have went both ways with it and it likes the mustard base as all rubs seem to do. As the mustard dissapates during the cook (usually) there is only the rub to taste for seasoning. I like that one your using as well as the garlic and peppercorn.
    Hope we are not late for lunch..Cheerio..C~W[p]
