    • Directions

  • For basting sauce:

  • Steak preparation:
  • Allow steaks to thaw to room temperature. Sprinkle each steak evenly on both sides with kosher salt and cracked black pepper (optional). NOTE: Kosher salt is the best tenderizer for steak and also serves as seasoning along with black pepper (optional).Allow steaks to marinate 15 minutes per 1/4 inch of steak thickness (1 inch thick = 1 hour). After marinating, rinse steaks thoroughly under mildly warm water and then pat steaks dry. Crack pepper over steaks lightly (optional). On high heat, grill steaks 2-3 minutes per side. Remove to indirect heat. Baste the top of the steak with the butter mixture. For medium rare, continue to grill 2-3 minutes per side. Medium 3-5 minutes per side. Medium well 5-7 minutes per side. Well done 7-10 minutes per side. Remove from grill and baste the opposite side of the steak with butter mixture before serving.
