Ingredients

Coffee Rub:

1/4 cup ancho chili powder
1/4 cup finely ground espresso
2 tablespoons Spanish paprika
2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon dry mustard
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon ground coriander
1 tablespoon dried oregano
2 teaspoons ground ginger
2 teaspoons chili de arbol powder
2 bone-in or boneless rib-eye steaks, 2-inches thick, approximately 1 1/2 pounds each
Canola or olive oil
Salt and coarsely ground black pepper

Directions

Combine all spices in a bowl.

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

Preheat a cast iron pan over high heat. Brush each side of the steak with oil and then season each side liberally with salt and pepper. Rub 2 tablespoons of the coffee rub onto 1 side of each steak. Cook the steak, rub side down until golden brown, about 3 to 4 minutes. Flip the steak over, cook for 2 minutes and then transfer to a baking sheet and cook in the oven to medium-rare doneness, about 8 to 10 minutes. Remove and let rest 5 minutes before slicing.

Love this rub!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I'm a 12 month a year griller (even in NY) and this is one of my favorites. I keep the extra rub in a sealed container and... make several meals from it. I use the grill rather than the oven and it works great. I did doctor it a bit by adding some cocoa powder to give it a little more of the tex-mex flavor.Read more

Good Rub

I made this a while ago, but the recipe does make A LOT. Anyone know how long this will last in the cupboard?

First Time Steak Rub
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I cook from the heart and never use recipes. I think this just might be a staple for me for the rest of my life. Easy,... simple but the most delicious steak I've ever made. Thanks Bobby! p.s. It was so good I had to take a picture of it!Read more

Way Better Than Cajun Blackening!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

As a born and raised Louisianian, I must stay this blows the doors off the local Cajun style Blackening seasoning. The... Espresso really adds a deeper flavor to the rub. I use this rub exclusivley for all my Fish and Beef. The only thing I did differently was add some red pepper to "Bam" kick it up a notch! Enjoy!Read more

WOW!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This entire meal was delicious! My guests gushed over the meal and simply said WOW! The carmelized small onions are a must,... they are incredible and worth the extra work! Great for presentation too! I will never have creamed spinach again, kale reigns supreme!Read more

Thanks Bobby for a great recipe. I had never cooked steak before. It was easy and tastes great. I had a blast cooking it with... my family. I'll definitely be using this recipe again.Read more
