6 tablespoons coriander
1 tablespoon green peppercorn
1 tablespoon red peppercorn
2 tablespoons white peppercorns
2 tablespoons black peppercorns
2 tablespoons cumin seeds
1 1/2 tablespoons yellow mustard seeds
2 tablespoons fenugreek seeds (I use when i can) (optional)
2 -4 dried New Mexico chiles, with seeds (mild)
2 -4 thai dried hot red chili peppers, with seeds #
2 tablespoons dried thyme
2 tablespoons rosemary (rough ground)
2 tablespoons hot paprika
6 tablespoons minced dried garlic (not garlic salt) or 6 tablespoons garlic powder, works in a pinch
2 tablespoons minced dried onion
dried onion flakes, slightly ground
3 tablespoons coarse sea salt, to taste Do not grind (optional)

Steps:

** Note: Substitute 6 Tbls Black peppercorn, depending on what is you have handy or preference.
# Note: chilie peppers optional to taste, if you like it hot add more and with seeds
Lightly toast each whole spice separately in a dry cast pan until it releases the aroma or starts to brown
Then grind each spice separately to a fairly course texture due to the different hardness's of the spices. Some are harder than others and require more time in the grinder. As always, a cheap coffee grinder works great!
Combine the newly ground spices and the "Just Add" spices in bowl till cool then put in a jar for storage.
Rub on steak half an hour before cooking. The longer it marinades the better. I have added sage and used this on chicken and pork as well.
This makes a large mason jar full (1 quart) I make enough to share lol.
