Description

Give your grilling a serious upgrade with our Kona coffee BBQ rub. This coffee-infused spice blend uses our award-winning 100% Kona coffee to enhance, rather than mask, the natural flavor of your meat, while the coffee's natural compounds help tenderize the protein and build a rich, flavorful crust.

Great on chicken, steak, fish, and pork, it works equally well on the grill or in the kitchen, delivering complex, smoky, mouth-watering results every time. Each 4 oz tin is packed with a custom blend of spices built around that unmistakable Kona coffee base. Whether you're smoking a brisket, searing a steak, or firing up weeknight burgers, this coffee BBQ rub brings a subtle depth that showcases both the coffee and your cooking, an easy way to make everything off the grill taste like it came from a restaurant.

Frequently asked questions

Some questions and answers are automatically generated.

Does the coffee flavor overpower the meat?
No. Customers report the flavor is well-balanced and not overpowering—one reviewer who left the rub on steaks overnight noted it "tasted great, not overpowering." The coffee enhances the natural flavor of the meat rather than masking it.
What meats work best with this rub?
Reviewers have successfully used it on steak, pork tenderloin, chicken, and fish. One customer noted it's particularly lovely when marinated for a couple of hours before cooking, and another praised the results on a pork tenderloin prepared sous vide and seared on the BBQ.
Can you use it as a marinade?
Yes. One reviewer mentioned marinating meat for a couple of hours ahead of cooking and found it particularly effective, while another left the rub on steaks overnight with great results, so it works both as a dry rub and as part of a marinating process.
Is the flavor complex and balanced?
Yes. Customers describe it as having "great flavors, with just the right balance of spices" and praised its ability to deliver complex, smoky results. Multiple reviewers used words like "delicious" and highlighted the well-rounded taste profile.
Works for both grilling and kitchen cooking?
Yes. One reviewer successfully used it on pork tenderloin prepared sous vide indoors before finishing on the BBQ, demonstrating it works equally well in different cooking methods.
