Espresso Steak Rub Recipe

Espresso Steak Rub Notes

Since I get such wonderful spices from The Spice House, I am always looking for ways to use them up and make new rubs or combos. Here is one that is delicious on steak or lamb.

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup ground sweet ancho chile or california chile powder
• 1/2 cup dark instant espresso powder
• 4 Tablespoons hot smoked Spanish paprika
• 3 Tablespoons brown sugar
• 1 Tablespoon dry yellow mustard powder
• 1 Tablespoon salt
• 2 Tablespoons freshly ground black pepper
• 1 Tablespoon powdered ginger
• 2 teaspoons Chipotle chile powder

Serves / Yields

About 1 1/2 cups

Preparation Instructions

Mix all together and store in a jar.

Helpful Hints

Keep for use on grilling steaks and other meats. Apply liberally to one side only, put this side down first. You can grill on an open fire or on a griddle indoors. If using 1" steaks, about 4-5 minutes on each side will give you a medium rare steak.

I like to put a dollop of a good herb butter on top of steak when serving, and a good suggestion is to mix a few tablespoons of this rub into about 1/2 stick of butter.
