Aromatic Spiced Coffee Rub For Meat - cooking recipe

Ingredients

8 whole star anise
6 cloves
4 tablespoons whole coffee beans
1 tablespoon black peppercorns
1 tablespoon pink peppercorns
1 tablespoon white peppercorns
1 teaspoon dried sage
2 tablespoons gray salt
1 tablespoon muscovado sugar
1 teaspoon garlic powder

Preparation

Grind the spices together in a spice grinder, careful to let the contents settle before removing the lid.
Mix well in a bowl with salt, sugar, and garlic powder.
Rub on beef roast or venison and let sit for at least 2 hours.
Roast the meat as directed by your recipe.
[Chef's Note: This rub can also be used for grilling meats such as beef, chicken, duck and pork, although the coffee flavor will be quite strong if the meat is not slow-roasted. For grilling, it is suggested using only 2 tablespoons of coffee beans, and using the rub as a seasoning, rather than completely covering the meat.].
