Grilled Hanger Steaks Recipes

GRILLED HANGER STEAK

Steps:

• In a dish large enough to hold the meat, whisk together the wine, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, sugar, and pepper. Rub the meat with the garlic and place both in the marinade. Turn the meat to coat completely with the marinade. Cover and chill for at least 2 hours and up to overnight.
• Bring the meat to room temperature. Prepare an outdoor grill or heavy saute pan. Remove the meat from the marinade and pat dry. Generously salt and pepper both sides. Place on the hot grill, cover and cook for 4 minutes. Turn and cook for an additional 6 to 8 minutes for medium rare, 140 degrees on an instant-read thermometer. Let the meat sit for at least 5 minutes before carving. This can also be cooked under the broiler.

BUTCHER'S STEAK (HANGER STEAK)

Steps:

• Remove all silver skin and extra fat from the steak. Carefully cut out the connective tissue that connects the 2 halves of the steak, separating the whole into 2 long pieces. Cut lobe of meat from one half (it's a piece that is slightly separated from the larger half). Then cut each of the 2 larger halves into 2 steaks each. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Heat skillet over high heat. Add clarified butter when pan is hot, then place the steaks in the pan. Reduce heat to medium. Cook until browned on all sides, firm, and reddish-pink on the inside. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 125 degrees F (52 degrees C), a total of about 12 minutes. (This cut of meat has a sort of triangular shape, so about 4 minutes per side.) Transfer to a warm plate and tent with foil to let steaks rest and allow temperature to rise to 130 degrees F.
• Pour stock into skillet set over medium heat. Stir with a wooden spoon scraping up the browned bits from the bottom. When brownings dissolve and liquid begins to reduce after 2 or 3 minutes, reduce heat to low. Add accumulated juices from the meat, balsamic vinegar, and butter chunks. Cook and stir until butter melts. If liquid has reduced too much, add a splash of broth. Taste to check if sauce needs a bit of salt.
• To serve, slice steaks and spoon pan sauce over them.

GRILLED MARINATED HANGER STEAK

Steps:

• Prep:Combine oil, vinegar, garlic, and pepper in a large shallow dish. Add steak, turning to coat. Refrigerate at least 6 hours and up to 8, turning once if possible. Remove steak from marinade, and discard marinade. Let steak stand at room temperature 30 minutes. Season very generously with salt and pepper.
• Grill:Heat grill to medium-high. Grill steak, uncovered, rotating frequently, until internal temperature reaches 125 degrees for medium-rare or 130 degrees for medium, about 12 minutes total. Transfer steak to a cutting board, and let rest 5 minutes. Slice steak on the diagonal.

DRY RUBBED HANGER STEAK WITH SMOKY AIOLI AND CHARRED PEPPERS

Steps:

• For the steak: Place the steaks on a parchment-lined sheet pan. In a small bowl, mix the mustard powder, paprika, salt, chili powder and pepper. Sprinkle the mixture all over the steaks. Let sit at room temperature for 2 hours.
• Make the charred peppers: Heat a large braiser or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until searing hot. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, toss the baby bell sweet and shishito peppers with the olive oil, habaneros, chili powder, paprika, salt and pepper. Add the pepper mixture to the braiser and lower the heat to medium. Cook, stirring occasionally, until charred in spots and tender but still with some bite, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Make the vinaigrette: While the peppers are cooking, in a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, honey, pickled peppers, vinegar, red pepper flakes, garlic, lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste. Once the charred pepper mixture is cooked, add them to the vinaigrette along with the quartered pickled peppers. Toss to coat well and set aside.
• Make the aioli: In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise, pepper brine, cherry peppers, paprika, garlic and salt to taste. Place in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
• Cook the steaks: Preheat a grill pan or grill over medium-high heat. Cook the steaks on the grill pan or grill, flipping only once, for 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare or until an instant-read thermometer registers between 120 to 125 degrees F. Allow the meat to rest for 5 to 10 minutes.
• Slice the meat against the grain to ensure tenderness. Sprinkle with the basil, chives and thyme. Serve with the charred peppers and smoky oli.

• For the jalapeno cheese grits: Bring broth, cream and milk to a boil in a saucepan, then add grits. Reduce heat to a simmer and stir grits with a wooden spoon. Cook, stirring every few minutes so grits don't stick, until grits start to soften, about 15 minutes. Add Gouda, Parmesan, butter, white pepper and jalapeno and continue to cook on low, stirring, until all cheese is melted and grits are soft and creamy, 10 to 15 minutes. Add salt to taste little at a time.

GRILLED HANGER STEAK

Steps:

• Trim away fat and membrane from the surface of the steak about 2 hours before cooking time. If the hanger steak is whole, gently tease the meat away from the long center sinew and discard it in order to create 2 long, thin steak pieces. Place trimmed steaks in a non-reactive baking dish.

• Rub the steaks with olive oil and lightly sprinkle with sea salt.
• When the cooking grates are hot, place oiled steak onto the grate and cook steaks until firm and reddish-pink and juicy in the center, 2 to 3 minutes per side (medium-rare). An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C). Remove from the grill and tent with foil to allow residual heat to bring internal temperature up to 135 degrees F (57 degrees C).
• Slice about 1/4 inch thick, across the steaks, and serve warm.

Add the garlic and 1/4 cup of canola oil to the green beans and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper; set aside.
• Stir the water, sugar, and shallots together in a saucepan until the sugar dissolves; cover the pan and bring the mixture to a boil. Drain the liquid and return the shallots to the pan. Add the port wine and demi glace to the saucepan and place over medium heat; cook until the liquid reduces to about half its original volume. Stir the butter into the mixture until it melts. Remove the pan from the heat. Season with salt as needed. Keep the saucepan covered until the steaks are prepared.
• Spread the green beans onto the part of the grill prepared with aluminum foil and allow to finish cooking while grilling the steaks.
• Cook the steaks until they start to firm, and are reddish-pink and juicy in the center, about 2 minutes per side.
