Coffee & Chile Pepper Rub is crafted to draw out the savory, umami flavor of your favorite cuts of red meat. Freshly ground espresso beans marry perfectly with smoky-sweet chipotle chiles, bringing unforgettable depth and heat to your next barbeque or steak dinner.

If you head to a steakhouse or a Michelin-starred restaurant for a celebratory meal and order a filet mignon or a robust ribeye, the sommelier is likely to offer a cabernet sauvignon wine as an accompaniment. The bold flavors of wine and meat marry well together; however, the reason that a cabernet is paired with heavy meat is actually because of its high concentration of tannins. The acidic tannins help to cleanse your palate with each sip so that you can more thoroughly enjoy the juicy steak or game. As it turns out, coffee has much the same effect on the palate. When rubbed onto the steak, it enhances the already alluring flavors, and the acidity even tenderizes the meat. Throw in some smoky chipotles and paprika, and you’ve got a combination that’ll replace your go-to steak seasonings.

Liberally season your meat with the Coffee & Chile Rub before grilling or roasting. Or, if you are feeling creative, bake this rub into your favorite brownie or chocolate cake recipe for chile & espresso flavor.
