Flank Steak Rub
I got the basis for this from Cooking Light, but left out their red pepper flakes. This makes a nice spicy rub. It's not hot spicy. I rubbed this on the meat about an hour before barbecueing it.
- 2 Tbs olive oil
- 2 tsp paprika
- 2 tsp ground cumin
- 2 tsp brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/4 tsp celery seeds
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
Mix all the rub ingredients together, then smear on both sides of the steak, at least an hour before cooking. Salt and pepper lightly then grill the meat over medium high heat about 12-14 minutes total, turning halfway through. Then let the meat rest on a plate or cutting board for 5 minutes before slicing.
Makes great flank steak tacos!
