Beef Brisket rub with a secret ingredient

[psoltesz]

Hey all,

This is posted over in the "Beef" category, but just in case anyone missed it over there, thought I would post it here as well.  It's my beef brisket rub, with a touch of coffee (works great for browning).

Enjoy!


Phil's Brisket Rub
4 tbsp finely ground coffee (espresso works well)
4 tbsp chili powder
5 tsp brown sugar
5 tsp garlic salt
5 tsp onion powder
5 tsp smoked paprika
2 tsp ground cumin
2 tsp McCormick Smokehouse pepper

I've looked everywhere in my area for McCormick's smokehouse pepper, and can't find it.  How is it different from their regular coarse-ground pepper?  Just wondering how much difference there is.

It looks like it's apple wood smoke-infused black pepper.  Hmmm ... I may have to research smoking peppercorns prior to grinding to see if it makes a difference ...

Hmmm.  I have a cold-smoke plate.  May have to be smokin' some pepper corns!
