This rub works on just about any cut (in fact, it's served on filet mignon at Bobby Flay's Mesa Grill), and the pan-to-oven method is foolproof.

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons ancho chile powder
2 tablespoons finely ground coffee beans
5 teaspoons dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon hot smoked Spanish paprika
1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons ground coriander
1 1/2 teaspoons mustard powder
1 teaspoon chile de árbol powder or 3/4 teaspoon finely ground red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 tablespoon kosher salt, plus more
2 16-ounce boneless New York strip steaks (about 1 inch thick)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Mix ancho chile powder, ground coffee, brown sugar, paprika, dried oregano, pepper, coriander, mustard, chile de árbol powder, ginger, and 1 Tbsp. salt in a small bowl.
  • Season steaks with salt, then coat with 5 tsp. spice rub per steak (save any extra rub for your next steak). Place on a wire rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet and chill uncovered 3-6 hours.
  • Let steaks sit 1 hour to come to room temperature, which will help them cook quickly and more evenly.
  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Cook steaks 2 minutes or so on each side to create a nice crust. Transfer skillet to oven; cook steaks until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 120°F for medium-rare, about 5 minutes. Transfer steaks to a cutting board; let rest 10 minutes. Slice 1/2-inch thick.

CHILI AND COFFEE-RUBBED STEAKS

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 tablespoons cumin seeds
1/4 cup freshly ground coffee beans
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 1/2 tablespoons chili powder
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
4 8-ounce flat iron steaks
Canola oil

Steps:

  • Make the coffee rub: Toast the cumin seeds in a small dry skillet over low heat until fragrant, about 2 minutes, making sure to shake the pan frequently. Transfer to a spice grinder and finely grind. Mix the toasted cumin seeds with the ground coffee, 1 tablespoon salt, 1 1/2 tablespoons pepper, the chili powder and cinnamon in a small bowl.
  • Blot the steaks dry. Brush the meat with a little canola oil. Spread the coffee rub on a baking sheet and roll the steaks in the mixture to coat, using about 1 tablespoon per steak. Cover and refrigerate 1 hour but no longer-otherwise, the meat will begin to cure.
  • Preheat a grill to medium high. Drizzle a little canola oil on both sides of each steak, then grill 5 to 6 minutes per side for medium rare. Transfer the steaks to a cutting board and let rest 15 minutes before slicing.
