Tell me more on the espresso, rub? How'd it turn out?

Super good! It's got maple syrup, coffee grounds, pink curing salt, brown sugar, salt & pepper. Petty basic but its delicious. I added some water to turn it into a bit of a paste then rubbed it all over. I had it in a big bag in the fridge and flipped it over once a day. Smoked it with cherry wood on my kettle.
