• Liberally sprinkle a thin layer of the rub onto the steak, then pat it in with your fingers so it adheres.

COWBOY STEAK WITH COFFEE AND CHILI RUB

Steps:

• Spray a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray and preheat it over medium-high heat. In a small bowl combine all the ingredients for the rub and coat the steak well on both sides. Cook steak for 14 minutes, turning once, for medium to medium-rare. Allow steak to sit for 5 minutes before slicing.

COFFEE RUB STEAK

Steps:

• Select your favorite cut of steak - Ribeye, T-Bone, or New York works well. Make sure the cut is 2" or better. The grade should be choice or above.
• Select your favorite dark roast coffee. Fine, Espresso, or Turkish grind will suffice.
• Select an Olive or Canola Oil.
• Preheat a cast iron skillet. Brush the oil on both sides of the steak. Apply salt and pepper liberally. Any other favorite spices can be applied, such as mustard, ginger, oregano, etc.
• Hand rub 2 tablespoons of coffee onto one side of the steak. Cook approximately 3-4 minutes or until golden brown.
• Flip each steak and repeat the coffee rub.
• Finish each steak off on the grill.
• Enjoy!

GARLIC-AND-CHILI-RUBBED STEAKS

Steps:

• In a small bowl stir together chili powder, garlic paste, cumin, and sugar and stir in Worcestershire sauce to make a paste.
• Arrange steaks on a plate large enough to hold them in one layer and rub both sides of steaks with chili paste. Transfer steaks to a large sealable plastic bag. Marinate steaks, chilled, at least 4 hours and up to 2 days.
• Prepare grill.
• Grill steaks on an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals 5 minutes on each side for medium-rare. (Alternatively, steaks may be grilled in a hot well-seasoned large ridged grill pan over moderately high heat.) Transfer steaks to plates and let stand 5 minutes.

CHILI-RUBBED RIB-EYE STEAKS WITH CILANTRO BUTTER

Steps:

• At least a few hours and up to 1 month before you plan to cook, make the butter. In a small skillet over medium heat, heat the oil. Add the cilantro, shallot, and garlic and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring often, until the shallot is soft. Transfer to a bowl and set aside to cool. In a medium bowl, cream the butter with a fork. Add the cilantro mixture and blend well. Transfer to a 12-X-12-inch sheet of waxed paper and form into a log about 8 inches long in the center of the sheet. If the mixture is too warm to handle, just refrigerate for a couple of minutes until it is ready. Roll the butter up in the waxed paper to make a firm log and twist the ends to hold it tight. Place in the freezer until firm.
• One hour before you plan to cook, make the rub. In a small bowl, mix together the chili powder, salt, granulated garlic, onion powder, and smoked paprika. Add the oil and mix well. Place the steaks on a big platter and brush the wet chili rub evenly on both sides on the steaks. Refrigerate until it is time to cook.
• Prepare the grill for cooking over direct medium-high heat. Place the steaks directly over the cooking grate. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or to your desired degree of doneness. Remove to individual serving plates and top each steak with a couple of thin slices of the butter. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

CHILI-RUBBED STEAK AND SALAD

Steps:

• Make salad dressing: In a medium bowl, stir together 1/4 teaspoon chili powder, 1/4 teaspoon ground coriander, mustard, 2 teaspoons olive oil, and vinegar. Season with salt and pepper; set aside.
• Prepare steak: Rub meat with remaining chili powder and coriander; season with salt and pepper. In a small skillet, heat remaining teaspoon oil over medium-high. Cook steak, turning it over halfway through, until browned and cooked to medium-rare, about 4 minutes.
• Assemble: Add lettuce, radishes, and onion to bowl with dressing; toss to coat. Place salad on dinner plate, and top with steak.
