Coffee Rub
A coffee rub is a great way to perk up the flavor of grilled meats. Coffee can be used as a great way to start your day ... or end it, at the grill. The dark and toasty undertones from the coffee in this dry rub pair well with dark meats. Any freshly ground coffee beans will work; choose dark roast for the biggest coffee flavor or a lighter roast if you're looking for something a little more subtle. Use on: Chicken thighs, duck, beef, lamb.
