BF's Coffee Rub For Steaks

Ingredients for coffee Rub:
1/4 cup ancho chili powder
1/4 cup finely ground espresso
2 T Spanish paprika
2 T dark brown sugar
1 T dry mustard
1 T kosher salt
1 T ground black pepper
1 T ground coriander
1 T dried oregano
2 teaspoons ground ginger
2 teaspoons chili de arbol powder

2 bone-in or boneless rib-eye steaks, 2-inches thick, approximately 1 1/2 pounds each
canola or olive oil
salt and coarsely ground black pepper

Preparing the steaks:
Combine all spices in a bowl.

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

Preheat a cast iron pan over high heat. Brush each side of the steak with oil and then season each side liberally with salt and pepper. Rub 2 tablespoons of the coffee rub onto 1 side of each steak. Cook the steak, rub side down until golden brown, about 3 to 4 minutes. Flip the steak over, cook for 2 minutes and then transfer to a baking sheet and cook in the oven to medium-rare doneness, about 8 to 10 minutes. Remove and let rest 5 minutes before slicing.
