How good does a Dove’s Chocolate anything sound? Our friends Nate and Le Tonia are Dove Chocolatiers. A few months ago they sent us some of Dove’s Sweet’N’Spicy Cocoa Rub. I have used it on pork, lamb, duck, chicken and now a beef tri tip. It is not like anything you are thinking. It’s better. For example, the Mexicans have been cooking with chocolate in their foods for 200 years. Most folks don’t realize that a lot of good chili has a little cocoa in it. The cocoa is not meant to be over powering, but just to add another subtle layer to what you are cooking. And that is exactly what has happened here tonight.
