Beef Tenderloin Steaks With Creole Spice Rub

"This recipe is from Cooking Light magazine. It is also good on chicken breasts, shrimp, or pork tenderloin. I make the rub and cover the steaks with it before I stick them in the freezer for a make-ahead meal. When they are thawed they are ready to go straight to the grill."

  1. Me, and my wife loved this recipe...
     
  2. I found this recipe for my husband. He used it as a rub for ribs. I think the spices blended very well together.
     
  3. This was sooo good! The spices were delicious and the meat was perfectly tender. The only one in my family who didn't like it was my daughter, who just doesn't like a lot of spices. The rest of us loved it!
     
  4. We loved this! My DH said it reminded him of the spices they used to season meat in Nigeria. I will be trying it on chicken and seafood next. I will be making a big batch of this now and storing it in an empty spice jar. Thank you so much for the recipe!
     
  5. My family and I loved this simple delicious steak preparation. No joke, from start to finish it took less than 15 minutes. The spice rub was well balanced with no single ingredient taking over. Very tingly on the lips. Thanks for posting a great recipe.

I live in the San Francisco area and love it here. I discovered Recipezaar (then Food.com..Genius Kitchen) in 2001 and have been so happy to have my favorite recipes stored safely here. I am mother to 7 and grandmother to 7. I love to knit, smock, sew, etc., but my favorite hobby of the moment is traditional rug hooking. This is a sample of what I do.? It's called "November".? I dyed most of the wool myself. It is made from wool flannel, cut into strips a little less than 1/4" and then worked into a linen backing. This is my 3rd rug.
