Okay, so I was skeptical at first—coffee on meat? But holy smokes (literally), this rub is LEGIT.
The first time I used it on a ribeye, my entire kitchen smelled like a fancy steakhouse. That coffee-smoky aroma had my neighbors peeking over the fence!
What I love most is how it creates this insane crust—like those expensive restaurant steaks but in my backyard. The sugar caramelizes perfectly without burning (even when I got distracted by football highlights).
Tried it on chicken thighs last weekend and boom—instant flavor upgrade. Even my picky nephew asked for seconds (miracle alert!).
Pro tip: Goes amazing with bourbon cocktails. Not that I’ve done extensive research or anything… *cough*
Seriously though, if your grill game needs a boost, grab this rub. Warning: May cause excessive compliments and requests to host all future cookouts.
