Best 5 Chile Coffee Rub Recipes

COFFEE-CHILE DRY RUB

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix all the ingredients thoroughly, massaging the mixture with your fingers to break down the dark brown sugar into fine crystals.
• Liberally sprinkle a thin layer of the rub onto the steak, then pat it in with your fingers so it adheres.

CHILE-COFFEE RUB

Steps:

• In a small airtight container, combine chile powder, espresso powder, sugar, cinnamon, and pepper. Cover and shake well to combine. Store at room temperature, up to 1 month.
• To use, heat a grill or grill pan to medium-high. Clean and lightly oil hot grill. Rub 1/4 cup mixture on both sides of a 2-pound flank steak; season with coarse salt. Grill about 7 minutes per side for medium-rare, flipping once.

CHILI AND COFFEE-RUBBED STEAKS

Steps:

• Make the coffee rub: Toast the cumin seeds in a small dry skillet over low heat until fragrant, about 2 minutes, making sure to shake the pan frequently. Transfer to a spice grinder and finely grind. Mix the toasted cumin seeds with the ground coffee, 1 tablespoon salt, 1 1/2 tablespoons pepper, the chili powder and cinnamon in a small bowl.
• Blot the steaks dry. Brush the meat with a little canola oil. Spread the coffee rub on a baking sheet and roll the steaks in the mixture to coat, using about 1 tablespoon per steak. Cover and refrigerate 1 hour but no longer-otherwise, the meat will begin to cure.
• Preheat a grill to medium high. Drizzle a little canola oil on both sides of each steak, then grill 5 to 6 minutes per side for medium rare. Transfer the steaks to a cutting board and let rest 15 minutes before slicing.

COWBOY STEAK WITH COFFEE AND CHILI RUB

Steps:

• Spray a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray and preheat it over medium-high heat. In a small bowl combine all the ingredients for the rub and coat the steak well on both sides. Cook steak for 14 minutes, turning once, for medium to medium-rare. Allow steak to sit for 5 minutes before slicing.

COFFEE CHILI RUBBED TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine oil, garlic, salt & RawSpiceBar's Dark Coffee & Chiles. Rub pork tenderloin with mixture, rolling the tenderloin until all of it is covered in the spices. Refrigerate and allow to marinate, at least 2-3 hours.
• When ready to cook, preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Coat a cast iron skillet with the canola oil, and bring to medium-high heat.
• Place tenderloin on pan. Sear for about 3-4 minutes, and turn over. Sear again for 3-4 minutes. Continue to sear all over, and once you have made your final "flip" of the tenderloin, place skillet in oven on middle rack. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a thermometer inserted into the center reads 150 degrees. Tent with foil and allow to rest for 8-10 minutes, slice and serve. Enjoy!
