"A wonderful flank steak - the spice mix is absolutely divine! Definitely, serve this with "Citrus and Plum Salad" on the side (recipe on this site), as this was how I originally found it on Emeril's website. The cocoa nibs are a must - they are easy to find here in Costa Rica in the produce section - not sure about the U.S. I've never made it with cocoa powder, but don't imagine it would work as well."
