Coffee encrusted burgers

Basic Coffee rub that my mom likes because it's basic and easy:
1 tablespoon freshly ground coffee
2 teaspoons (packed) golden brown sugar
2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt


My Convoluted Coffee Rub:
2 TB ground coffee (real and FRESHLY ground, no pre-ground Folger's)
1 tsp brown sugar
 Burger seasoning blend:
(just a hearty few dashes of each or 1/4 tsp)
garlic powder
onion powder
oregano powder
cumin
coriander powder
kosher salt
black pepper
1/8 tsp:
(or light sprinkling)
cayenne
cinnamon

Mix together well.

For 1 LB ground hamburger
2 lg cloves garlic
1/2 of your coffee rub

Mix about half of coffee rub into burgers and then form about 6 thin-ish patties. Coat each patty with a healthy sprinkling of the coffee rub and grill or saute for about 5-6 minutes on each side.
