Ancho-Coffee Rubbed Tri-Tip Steaks

[Jerome D.]

Not sure if they do this anywhere else, but one of my local supermarkets sells tri-tip in steak form. After letting the steaks cure in some kosher salt overnight, I seasoned them with some Ancho-Coffee rub I ordered from The Spice House. I've never tried a coffee-based rub until now, and I really liked the taste of this cook.

How did it taste? Never heard of that used as a rub before, but it looks great.

Another curious tri-tip lover here. How was it?

 

[Rick Body]

That's got some great color to it

@ Scott and Bob H. -

As best I can describe the taste, the steaks had a smoky/nutty/beefy flavor, with very mild heat.

This looks GREAT! I have a conical grinder that can push out some really fine grinds. I'm going to to try some coffee on my next ribs or chicken smoke. Cant wait! Thanks for the inspiration.
