My kitchen still reeks from a failed coffee crust attempt

I tried to make a coffee crust for some pork chops using my go-to dark roast. Now everything just tastes like ash and I can't get the smell out. What's the best way to use coffee in rubs without ruining the meat?

Oh man, I've been there. Try a much lighter grind and mix it with a ton of brown sugar next time.

Added so much sugar (like a cup) it became syrup.

My buddy did that with his cold brew last summer. Tasted like melted coffee ice cream.
