This chile rub is a staple in my pantry. One of our favorite uses of this rub is on the Red Chile Pork Tenderloin, you can find the recipe here.
For more of a South of the Border flavor on steaks, we use this red chili rub mixed with just a little bit of apple cider vinegar and rub that on the steak before grilling. It adds a unique and complex flavor to an otherwise simple steak.
