It's basically adding a liquid to your dry rub to create a paste. Like a combo of a dry rub and a marinade.

My dry rub becomes watery and bland when I cook a brisket at high heat due to the foiling process. I've heard some claim that a wet rub will bark up better during a high heat cook, but I've yet to try it.
