Ingredients

  • 4 Leahy’s Angus Beef NY Strip Steak (cut at 1″ thick – other steaks are fine too!)
  • 3 Tbsp Ground Coffee
  • 2 Tbsp Chili Powder
  • 1 Tbsp Brown Sugar
  • 1 Tbsp Kosher Salt
  • 1 tsp Black Pepper
  • 1 tsp Oregano
  • 1 tsp Ground Coriander

Directions

  1. Combine all seasonings in a small bowl and mix together. Liberally season each steak on both sides with the coffee rub.
  2. Place the seasoned steaks on a grill preheated to medium high heat and cook over direct heat for 4-6 minutes per side, flipping once, until the steaks reach 125ºF for medium rare or 135ºF for medium. Remove from the grill once they reach temperature.
  3. Let the steaks rest for a few minutes before serving, and enjoy with roasted potatoes and grilled green vegetables.
