Follow the package directions for making the popcorn. Melt the butter in a saucepan set over low heat. Add the rub and hot sauce and cook, stirring for about five minutes until the rub is dissolved and well-blended into the butter. Put the warm popcorn in a large bowl. Pour the seasoned butter on top and toss to coat. Pour peanuts over top.
