Try this next time too!

Real Estate Agent with RE/MAX Platinum

I don't eat steak, but my husband does. I have heard of doing this before, but never tried it.  Maybe I will suggest he takes Rachel Ray's advice on this one next time he has steak.

Flavor a steak with coffee singles!  Coffee lends a smoky, chocolaty flavor to rich red meats like sirloin and filet mignon.  When  you are stuck without marinating supplies, tear open a single-serving coffee packet and use your fingers to rub the coffee grounds directly onto a salted steak before broiling or grilling.  Has anyone tried this one? Please share!

Kristin- looks like we all have a lot of questions.  We've really cut down on our red meat but once in a while we want a really good steak.  Ok... can you just use ground coffee???

Kathy, agreed....I would think so...looks like we will all be doing trial and error (or my hubby would since I don't eat steak)

I don't eat steak either , but it sounds like it would be yummy.  We went to this olive oil store today and mixed and matched Balsmic's and flavored oils together.  We were than taught how to use them and pair them with foods.  It was pretty cool.  I bought 6 different types.  Mine will pair nicely with: scallops, shrimp and salmon.   And one special espresso flavor that I can make a martini with!!!  Whoo-hoo.

Good morning Kristin,

I have never heard of this! Might be worth a try but I'm still wondering is you put the cooffee grounds directly on the meat?  Learn something new every day!!

Sounds like a great idea.  Gonna try it.  Not much you can do to ruin a steak, so I will definitely give it a try.  Thanks!

No longer eat red meat and don't drink coffee, so this one is out. But, I do like the smokey flavor that Costco seasoning has for chicken and turkey.
