Texas-Style Chipotle Beef Rub is a flavorful way to add spice and excitement to beef dishes. The recipe, which comes from the heart of Texas, has been passed down through generations and is a favorite among meat lovers. The dark brown sugar in the rub not only adds sweetness but also helps to create a caramelized crust when cooked. Coffee grounds add depth to the rub's smoky flavor, while the TABASCO brand Chipotle Pepper Sauce gives it a tangy kick. Whether grilling, pan-frying, or slow-cooking beef, this rub will elevate the dish from ordinary to extraordinary.

Instructions

1.	In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients and mix until well blended.
2.	Rub the mixture generously onto the beef, making sure to coat all sides.
3.	Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for a more intense flavor.
4.	Grill or pan-fry the beef to your desired level of doneness.
5.	Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
