"This is based on a Bobby Flay recipe, modified to use ingredients I commonly have on hand. I also BBQ the steaks instead of pan-frying. The rub adds a very nice spice to these delicious ribeyes!"

Yields:: 1 steak
Serves:: 4

ingredients

¹⁄₄ cup chili powder
¹⁄₄ cup coffee (finely ground)
2 tablespoons paprika (Spanish paprika is best)
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon dry mustard
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon ground coriander
1 tablespoon dried oregano
2 teaspoons ground ginger
2 -4 tablespoons olive oil
4 rib eye steaks (can use other types of steak as well)

directions

Mix all spices together in a small bowl.
Brush steaks on both sides with olive oil.
Rub each side of the steaks with 1-2 tablespoons of the spice mixture.
Let steaks stand out of refrigerator for 1/2 hour.
Preheat BBQ grill to high.
Cook steaks directly on grill for 2 minutes, flip and rotate 1/4 turn. Repeat three more times until steaks have been cooking for 8 minutes total, 4 on each side. The rotation will leave nice grill marks on the steaks.
Move steaks to upper rack of grill, reduce heat to medium, and close lid.
Continue cooking, flipping every few minutes, until desired doneness is reached. I find 1 1/2 inch thick steaks generally take 16-18 minutes of total cooking time to reach Medium rareness.
