MAKE THE MOST TENDER, FLAVORFUL STEAK RECIPE RECIPE - (4.4/5)

Steps:

• To make the Garlic-Herb Butter, combine all ingredients. Lay out a sheet of plastic wrap. Spoon butter mixture on wrap. Roll and shape butter into a log. Refrigerate to firm up for 30 minutes. Slice into 1/4" disks to top the grilled steaks. You can make butter up to 3 days in advance. Make sure you use unsalted butter - the steak is seasoned perfectly already. The Steak 1. Buy a good sized Choice steak. I like mine 1.25 to 1.5 inches thick. Any cut of steak: Filet, Sirloin, Rib Eye, Porterhouse, T-Bone and NY Strip - they all work. Though, please remember to get steak that you'd normally buy to grill. Don't go buying some weird cut like the cow armpit and expect it to taste just like a NY Strip. You can do this with steaks less than 1″, just really watch your timing. If your steak is already superbly marbled - cut back on your timing and your salt! The fattier (more marbled) the meat is, the faster the salt works its way through the meat. 2. Sprinkle 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of kosher/sea salt PER SIDE. Use the photos at beginning of the post as guide on how much salt. For every inch thickness of steak, let sit at room temperature for 1 hour. •Less than 1-inch steak: 30-45 minutes •1 inch thick steak: 1 hour •1.25 inch steak: 1 hour and 15 minutes If you don't have that much time - well then, add more salt, cut back the time it sits. It's all related: Thickness of meat : Amount of Salt : Time And vice-versa, if you need to stretch your time, use less salt. Example: the above steaks that are 1.25″ thick - I should salt for 1 hour 15 minutes. But if my timing works out that I'm not grilling for 2 hours - then I'll cut back on the salt and let it sit for 2 hours. If you want to salt for more than 2 hours or overnight - sprinkle the steak with 1/2 the amount of salt that I've instructed (look at photos for reference), cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate. 3. Rinse all salt off on both sides, pat very dry with paper towels on both sides

Steps:

• Combine the sugars, ginger, garlic, soy sauce and vinegar together in a bowl.
• Place meat in shallow dish for marinating (I use a Tupperware specifically made for marinating, where you can turn it over easily-- a freezer bag works well also).
• Pour soy sauce mixture over meat.
• Allow steak to marinate at least 30 minutes, basting frequently and turning once or twice.
• The longer you are able to marinate it, the better.
• When ready to grill remove meat from marinade, reserving liquid.
• Place steak on grill about 3" from coals.
• Grill about 6 minutes or until one side is browned, basting frequently with reserved marinade.
• Turn and grill the other side about 6 minutes, or until done as desired.
• Enjoy!
