Ancho And Coffee Rub For Steak Recipes

COWBOY RIBEYE

Steps:

• Preheat smoker to 250 degrees Fahrenheit (F) using fruit wood. We like apple or cherry.
• While the smoker preheats, coat the steaks with 1 tablespoon of oil then season the two Cowboy Ribeyes with dry rub liberally.
• Place the steaks on the smoker, and insert a meat probe if you have one. Smoke for approximately 90 minutes or until the internal temperature of the meat reaches 115 - 120 degrees F. Remove the steaks from smoker and prepare for direct/indirect grilling.
• Once the grill is hot, place steak over direct heat and keep lid closed. This will minimize flare ups as the fat runs onto coals by minimizing airflow. Grill each side for additional 3 - 5 minutes or until you see desired crust. If there are big flare ups or the grill runs hotter, sear each side and move to indirect heat to finish to desired temperature. We like 125 degrees F for rare.
• Let the meat rest, and add 1 tablespoon of compound butter to the top, and let the meat rest for 15 minutes uncovered, while the butter melts, and then slice to serve with your favorite sides.

COFFEE-RUBBED STEAK

Steps:

• Mix ancho chile powder, ground coffee, brown sugar, paprika, dried oregano, pepper, coriander, mustard, chile de árbol powder, ginger, and 1 Tbsp. salt in a small bowl.
• Season steaks with salt, then coat with 5 tsp. spice rub per steak (save any extra rub for your next steak). Place on a wire rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet and chill uncovered 3-6 hours.
• Let steaks sit 1 hour to come to room temperature, which will help them cook quickly and more evenly.
• Preheat oven to 400°F. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Cook steaks 2 minutes or so on each side to create a nice crust. Transfer skillet to oven; cook steaks until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 120°F for medium-rare, about 5 minutes. Transfer steaks to a cutting board; let rest 10 minutes. Slice 1/2-inch thick.

BOBBY FLAY'S COFFEE SPICE RUB FOR STRIP STEAKS

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients in a bowl or a jar with a tight-fitting lid and mix well. Store in a cool place. Omit the chile de árbol if you want a milder rub. To use: Proceed with the master recipe, replacing the kosher salt with a coating of 1 tablespoon of spice rub on each steak, plus salt to taste. During searing, there will be a bit of smoke, but the steaks are not burning; it is just smoke from the spices in the rub. Works on all steaks but is best on strip steaks or rib-eyes

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.
