Description

If you’ve ever eaten at the Capital Grille, maybe you’ve ordered one of these? By far, one of the best steaks that I’ve ever had in a restaurant! I tried to come up with my own version of that, based on things I’d read online about that delicious steak!

This recipes makes enough for 8 steaks. I store them in a zipper freezer bag and use what I need.

I got so excited to eat my steak, I forgot to take a photo of it done!

Ingredients

  • ⅓ cups Sugar
  • 1 cup Ground Kona Coffee, Decaffeinated
  • ¼ cups Parmesan Cheese, Grated
  • ¼ cups Dry Mustard
  • ¼ cups Granulated Garlic
  • 1 Tablespoon Fresh Ground Black Pepper, Coarse
  • 2 Tablespoons Lawry's Seasoned Salt
  • 4 whole Steaks, I Prefer Sirloin, But This Is Great On Any Steak

Preparation

Combine all ingredients, excepts steaks, in a bowl; mix with fingers to break up any clumps. Depending on the cheese, you may want to pulse the blend in the bowl of your food processor a few times.

Dry steaks and dredge in the rub and press into the meat. Let rest in the fridge for at least 30 minutes or however long it takes to get your grill ready for direct grilling. I use charcoal and that takes at least 30 minutes.

Clean and oil yor grill grates when the coals are ready. Grill each steak for 6-8 minutes per side, depending on the thickness. My steaks are usually thicker, so we grill all 4 sides.

Grill to perfection! Medium rare for me!

I had to go to Caribou Coffee to get decaf Kona, so I just had them grind the beans for me…why? because I am super lazy and hate grinding my owns beans for coffee….so I threw away my grinder….
I forgot to add, I grind them pretty fine, almost to espresso grind…with a good cut of meat, there’s nothing better! Also, I store the steak rub in the zipper bag in the freezer… not the steaks with the rub on them….

Hey julip, do you buy the coffee beans whole and grind them yourself or do you buy the coffee already ground? I am a steak lover so I will have to give this a try when the weather gets above zero!
