We are not coffee drinkers.

My wife for some reason just picked it up to try.

My daughter's future father-in-law got me interested in adding coffee to rubs.  He has a coffee rub he uses that is great on ribs.

I haven't tried that particular Trader Joe's commercial coffee rub, but I've made a coffee rub from a recipe I've found online.  I've used it on a pork butt, a couple of chuckies, a brisket, and beef ribs.  It's pretty good and actually seems to enhance the meat better the second day, which is often the case regardless of what rub you use.    

Texas Coffee-Chipotle rub

Ingredients:

1/2 cup brown sugar

1/4 cup black pepper

1/4 cup of finely ground dark coffee

1/4 cup paprika (smoked is preferred but regular is fine)

2 Tbs salt

1 Tbs pasilla chili powder (the only change I made from the original recipe which used chipotle powder)

2 tsp granulated garlic

2 tsp of cinnamon

2 tsp cumin

2 tsp allspice

Method:
1. Combine all the rub ingredients together until well blended with no lumps.

Yield: About 8-9 oz.
