This is based on a Bobby Flay recipe, modified to use ingredients I commonly have on hand. I also BBQ the steaks instead of pan-frying. The rub adds a very nice spice to these delicious ribeyes!

Time 35m

Yield 1 steak, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

1/4 cup chili powder
1/4 cup coffee (finely ground)
2 tablespoons paprika (Spanish paprika is best)
2 tablespoons 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 -4 tablespoons olive oil
4 rib eye steaks (can use other types of steak as well)

Steps:

Mix all spices together in a small bowl.
Brush steaks on both sides with olive oil.
Rub each side of the steaks with 1-2 tablespoons of the spice mixture.
Let steaks stand out of refrigerator for 1/2 hour.
Preheat BBQ grill to high.
Cook steaks directly on grill for 2 minutes, flip and rotate 1/4 turn. Repeat three more times until steaks have been cooking for 8 minutes total, 4 on each side. The rotation will leave nice grill marks on the steaks.
Move steaks to upper rack of grill, reduce heat to medium, and close lid.
Continue cooking, flipping every few minutes, until desired doneness is reached. I find 1 1/2 inch thick steaks generally take 16-18 minutes of total cooking time to reach Medium rareness.

Tips:

Use a good quality coffee rub. Make sure it has a strong flavor that will stand up to the beef.
Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of coffee. A dark roast will give you a more intense flavor, while a light roast will be more mellow.
Let the steaks rest for at least 30 minutes before cooking. This will help them come to room temperature and cook more evenly.
Cook the steaks over high heat to get a good sear. Then, reduce the heat and cook the steaks to your desired doneness.
Let the steaks rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the juices redistribute and make the steaks more tender.

Conclusion:

Coffee-rubbed ribeye steaks are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The coffee rub adds a unique and flavorful crust to the steaks, while the ribeye steak provides a tender and juicy interior. With just a few simple steps, you can create a restaurant-quality steak that is sure to impress your friends and family.
