St. John Spice/Cruz Bay Rub substitute?

Last year on a trip to St. John, USVI, we stopped in a store called St. John spice and bought a jar of Cruz Bay Grill Rub. We've used it on veggies, steaks, potatoes, in tacos, etc. -- it's very versatile. Now our jar is about to run out and I don't want to order more from St. John Spice b/c it's a little pricey and so is the shipping. Does anyone know this spice mixture and can recommend something similar, e.g., from Penzey's?

FYI, the ingredients listed on the jar are roasted garlic, onion, bell papers, cinnamon, nutmeg, coriander, fennel, other spices, salt, cane sugar. (I once tried to replicate this myself using the ingredient list, with disastrous results.)
