Homemade Coffee Rub
This all purpose coffee spice rub is our all-time favourite dry rub that we use on everything. It's earthy, flavourful and great to use on anything you want to quickly cook up on the grill. Quick to make - you can double, triple or quadruple the recipe so that you only need to make it once and have plenty leftover.
