So I was inspired by Tommy with his coffee seasoned steaks and thought that I would give it a try. I took a packet of Starbuck's VIA micro-ground instant coffee and mixed it with a 1/4 tsp of white pepper and a 1/2 tsp of hickory smoked kosher salt. I ground the salt down to more of a powder. Then I applied some EVOO to the steaks and then coated with the mix. They were allowed to rest for an hour. I then heated up the RED and seared them for 3 minutes a side and then a 5 minute rest on the top rack. I think this is the ticket. There was a slight coffee flavor but not overpowering. My wife enjoyed the steaks also and is a avid coffee drinker like me. I would definitely try this again ;D

Hmmm....I like my coffee but...? Maybe breakfast, steak and eggs and a couple homemade biscuts. Now you've done it, I'm hungry again :D
Yummmieeee! That really looks good!
Very nice. The money shot looks like it is headed right for my mouth. What a tease.
Looks like it turned out perfect.
