Coffee Rub

Coffee Rub (AKA the world’s BEST rub!)

Ingredients:

1/3 cup ground espresso

1/3 cup paprika

2 tbs brown sugar

1 tsp chipotle powder

1 tbs granulated garlic

1 tbs ground coriander

1 tbs ground mustard

2 tsp ground ginger

1 tbs granulated onion

2 tsp kosher salt

1 tsp freshly cracked pepper

This is FANTASTIC on ribs, roasts, chicken and even on steak.  Generously coat the meat with the rub– it does NOT taste like coffee grounds (not at all!)– it imparts a deep, complex and just YUMMY flavor to everything it touches.  Make a double batch and store the extra in an air tight container– once you try it, I promise that you’ll NEVER use a store bought spice mix again!
