Ingredients
For the Espresso Rub
- 1 Tbsp finely ground espresso
- 1 tsp unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tsp ancho chile powder
- 1/2 Tbsp paprika
- 1/2 Tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp dry mustard
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp granulated garlic
- 1/2 tsp dried oregano
For the Rib-Eyes
- 4 boneless rib-eye steaks each one approximately 1 1/4” to 1 ½” thick
- grapeseed or canola oil
Instructions
- Combine all of the ingredients for the Espresso Rub in a small bowl; mix together until well combined.
- Brush one side of each rib-eye with grapeseed or canola oil. Rub approximately 1/4 of the Espresso Rub into the oiled side of each rib-eye.
- Cover lightly and let sit at room temperature for 20-25 minutes.
- Preheat a gas or charcoal grill to high heat.
- Place steaks on grill rub side down. Close cover and grill for 2 minutes.
- Flip steaks, close cover and grill for 2 more minutes.
- Turn the grill off completely and let the steaks roast for 5-8 more minutes, depending on thickness of steaks and personal preference. (Note: Try not to open the grill too often during this stage as it will cause the grill to cool off too quickly.)
- Remove steaks from grill and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
