Ashkinaze Rib Eye Recipes

ASHKINAZE RIB-EYE

Steps:

• Build a fire in your grill. If using a gas grill, turn all burners to high.
• Combine spices in a medium-size bowl. Rub steaks all over with mixture, and set aside.
• When all coals are covered with gray ash and the fire is hot (you can hold your hand 6 inches over the grill for only a few seconds), put steaks on grill directly over the coals, and cook until deeply seared, approximately 5 to 6 minutes. Turn the steaks over, and cook 6 to 8 minutes more for medium-rare. Remove steaks from grill, and allow to rest 5 to 7 minutes, while making salad. Serves 4.

PAN-SEARED RIB-EYE

Steps:

• Place a 10-to-12-inch cast-iron skillet in the oven and heat the oven to 500 degrees F. Bring the steak to room temperature.
• When the oven reaches temperature, remove the skillet and place on the range over high heat for 5 minutes. Coat the steak lightly with oil and sprinkle both sides with a generous pinch of salt. Grind on black pepper.
• Immediately place the steak in the middle of the hot, dry skillet. Cook 30 seconds without moving. Turn with tongs and cook another 30 seconds, then put the pan straight into the oven for 2 minutes. Flip the steak and cook for another 2 minutes. (This time is for medium-rare steak. If you prefer medium, add a minute to both of the oven turns.)
• Remove the steak from the skillet, cover loosely with foil and rest for 2 minutes. Serve whole or slice thin and fan onto plate.

MARINATED RIB EYES

Steps:

• In a large zip-lock bag, combine the first 9 ingredients.
• Remove 1/3 cup marinade and refrigerate.
• Pierce steaks several times on both sides with a fork.
• Place in the zip-lock bag and turn to coat.
• Cover and refrigerate overnight.
• Remove steaks, discarding marinade.
• Grill, uncovered, over medium-hot heat for 4-8 minutes on each side or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a meat thermometer should read 145 degrees; medium, 160; well done, 170).
• Warm reserved marinade and serve with steaks.

THE PERFECT RIB EYE MARINADE

Steps:

• In a shallow, nonreactive dish, mix red wine vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, onion, and pepper. Place steaks in the mixture. Cover, and marinate 1 hour in the refrigerator.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat, and lightly oil grate.
• Grill steaks on the prepared grill 5 to 7 minutes per side, to desired doneness. Discard remaining marinade.

HIMALAYAN SALT BLOCK RIB-EYE

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to 250 degrees F.
• Place a Himalayan salt block onto the grates and cover the grill. After 20 minutes, raise the grill temperature to 325 degrees F. After 20 more minutes, raise the grill temperature to 400 degrees F.
• Meanwhile, bring the rib-eyes to room temperature.
• Brush both sides of the rib-eyes with the vegetable oil. Season the rib-eyes with the kosher salt and pepper on both sides.
• Place the rib-eyes on the Himalayan salt block and cover. Cook until the rib-eyes are golden and caramelized on the bottom and the internal temperature reads 125 degrees F, 7 to 10 minutes. Flip the rib-eyes, then apply 1 tablespoon of butter to the top of each and rest 1 sprig of rosemary on top of the butter. Continue to cook, covered, until the internal temperature reads 130 degrees F for medium rare, another 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the rib-eyes to a cutting board and allow to rest for 5 minutes. Remove the rosemary sprigs and finish with a sprinkle of flaky sea salt.

GRILLED ASIAN-INFLUENCED RIB-EYE STEAKS

Steps:

• Combine all marinade ingredients and whisk together. Lay steaks flat in a glass baking dish. Let steaks come to room temperature. Stab meat with a fork - about three times for each steak.
• Pour marinade over steaks. Marinate briefly - 15 to 30 minutes. Turn steaks over in marinade to coat both sides.
• Heat grill on high for 10 minutes. Quickly grill steaks on high heat to char - approximately 4 minutes on each side.
• Take steaks off grill and let them rest at least 5 minutes before eating.
• Sprinkle extra cilantro and black pepper on top and serve.

SPICE-RUBBED RIB-EYE KABOBS WITH SALSA VERDE

Steps:

• To make the rub: In a large bowl, mix the spice ingredients first 5 ingredients salt thru chili powder.
• Cut the rib-eye steaks into 1-inch chunks, removing and discarding any large pieces of fat.
• Add the chunks of steak to the bowl and toss to coat them evenly with the spices. Add just enough oil to lightly coat the chunks of meat.
• Mix well.
• Thread the chucks on skewers, leaving a little room between each chunk.
• Set aside at room temperature for 20 to 30 minutes while you make the sauce.
• In a food processor, finely chop the basil, parsley, anchovy fillets, and garlic.
• Add the remaining sauce ingredients and let the machine run until you a have a fine puree, 1 to 2 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl occasionally.
• Grill the skewers over Direct High heat until cooked to desired doneness, 4 to 6 minutes for medium-rare, turning once or twice.
