How to Make Aromatic Spiced Coffee Rub For Meat

  1. Combine 1/4 cup whole coffee beans, 2 star anise stars, 4 whole cloves, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional) in a spice grinder. Grind until finely powdered, allowing the mixture to settle before opening.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the ground spice mixture, 2 tablespoons coarse sea salt, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, and 1 tablespoon garlic powder.
  3. Generously rub the spice mixture onto your chosen roast (venison or beef). For best results, let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight.
  4. Roast the meat according to your preferred recipe, ensuring to maintain a low and slow cooking method for ultimate tenderness. Internal temperature should reach 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare.
  5. Let the meat rest for at least 10-15 minutes before carving and serving. Enjoy!
