Cedar planks are a great way to impart flavor when grilling. The sweet, spicy coffee rub makes a delicious complement to steaks.

Ingredients
Method
Combine sugar, coffee, chili powder, cayenne and salt.
Cut steak to fit on cedar planks if necessary.
Brush steak with 2 teaspoons oil; sprinkle all over with coffee rub and press to adhere. Set aside.
Prepare a grill for high-heat cooking.
When very hot, bank coals on one side of grill, leaving one side free of coals; if using a gas grill, turn burner off on one side.
Have a spray bottle filled with water handy.
Heat cedar planks on cool side of grill for 3 minutes; remove from grill, brush one side lightly with oil and set aside.
Grill steaks on hot side of grill until just seared, 1 to 2 minutes per side.
Transfer steaks to oiled sides of planks and place planks near (but not over, if possible) hot zone on grill; close grill cover and cook until steaks reach desired doneness, 8 to 12 minutes for medium-rare.
Spray edges of planks with water if they catch fire.
Remove planks from grill; rest steaks on planks 10 minutes before slicing.
