Coffee-Chile Dry Rub
- 1/4 cup finely ground dark-roast coffee
- 1/4 cup ancho chile powder
- 1/4 cup dark brown sugar, tightly packed
- 2 tablespoons smoked paprika
- 2 tablespoons kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon ground cumin
- 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.
