It doesn't need to St. Patrick's Day to make these ridiculously delish cupcakes - but you WILL win the holiday if you whip these up. Drunchies, anyone?
The Imperial Coffee Stout is a beer-infused rub made with Derek Wolf of Over the Fire Cooking and is a keeper.
With warm cinnamon and nutmeg, earthy cumin, and spicy guajillo chiles and smoked paprika to create a perfectly balanced rub that's as good on a steak as it is in cake.
