Coffee Spice Pork Rub For Grilling Recipes

COFFEE-SPICE PORK RUB FOR GRILLING

Steps:

• Combine ground coffee, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, salt, chipotle powder, and cinnamon in a bowl until well blended.

AROMATIC SPICED COFFEE RUB FOR MEAT

Steps:

• Grind the spices together in a spice grinder, careful to let the contents settle before removing the lid.
• Mix well in a bowl with salt, sugar, and garlic powder.
• Rub on beef roast or venison and let sit for at least 2 hours.
• Roast the meat as directed by your recipe.
• [Chef's Note: This rub can also be used for grilling meats such as beef, chicken, duck and pork, although the coffee flavor will be quite strong if the meat is not slow-roasted. For grilling, it is suggested using only 2 tablespoons of coffee beans, and using the rub as a seasoning, rather than completely covering the meat.].

COFFEE-RUBBED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH ESPRESSO-HONEY GLACE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Combine brown sugar, espresso powder, salt, 2 teaspoons honey powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, sweet paprika, black pepper, onion powder, cocoa powder, and ground chipotle in a bowl. Mix thoroughly and transfer 1 tablespoon of the rub into a small bowl.
• Place pork tenderloin on a work surface and trim off any silver skin. Pat dry with paper towels. Sprinkle the larger portion of coffee spice rub all over the tenderloin, patting it on with your fingertips. Drizzle 1 tablespoon olive oil on top and rub it in. Let rest at room temperature for 10 minutes.
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil and butter in a large, oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat. Add pork; cook until browned on all sides, about 8 minutes.
• Transfer skillet to the preheated oven and roast tenderloin until slightly pink in the center, about 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest park of the tenderloin should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Remove from the oven, transfer to a serving platter, and let rest for 10 minutes.
• Heat the same skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon reserved coffee spice rub, water, demi-glace, Dijon mustard, and 1 teaspoon honey powder. Cook, stirring frequently, until sauce thickens, 3 to 4 minutes. Slice tenderloin into rounds and drizzle with the sauce.
