Beef Cinnamon Dry Rub

Ingredients
1 1/2 teaspoons cumin seed
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon sea salt (or kosher)
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 teaspoons brown sugar
Options
ground red pepper with or instead of ground black pepper
cayenne

Combine all the ingredients in a medium bowl. Work ingredients around until thoroughly mixed. Sprinkle onto meat until covered and pat gently to adhere to surface. Carefully do the other side. Wrap tightly in air tight plastic wrap. Store in the refrigerator for 2 to 24 hours.

Grill beef as you normally would without a dry rub.
