Dry rub for ribs and chicken or anything else you want to BBQ.

I use all those ingredients plus lots more in more dry rub.

Thanks, just wasn't sure about the cocoa.

Thanks, just wasn't sure about the cocoa.

I like to add instant coffee and cocoa powder to my rub mixture.

I like to add instant coffee and cocoa powder to my rub mixture.

I made coffee extract recently. I dried the "vodka-infused" crushed coffee beans, ground those in the spice grinder and plan on using those in my next dry rub.

Craig made something like this a while back using ground up cacao nibs plus ground chiles. I think we used it on either a pork or chicken dish. We've also used it in Craig's favorite huevos rancheros.
