Ruth is nice but their hot plates can overcook the steak and it gets oily after a while
Its oily bc they put shit loads of butter in their steak for cooking. Real good steak that are dry aged steak don't need butter or gobs of sauce on a steak.
Only when you use cheap steak does it need marinating, sauce, butter, & tons of olive oil.
If its too pricey to go out, i recc. if there is one, just buy a good dry aged steak if can find one. Some sea salt & a oven will help make a great steak. If you have a professional oven, even better. If anyone is located in the US, I have great dry aged steak places you can order online. Perhaps some one here can save a few bucks by cooking on their own.
Let the meat get up to room temp before grilling so it will sear. Cover a dinner plate with sea salt (large chunks of salt, not table salt) and fresh ground black pepper. Lightly brush the meat with olive oil and coat it with the salt/pepper mixture. Put a cast iron skillet on your grill and let it get super hot. While you are doing this, preheat your oven to 450. Sear the meat for 2 minutes per side in the skillet on your grill and then bring it in. Flip the steak and throw it in the oven for 2 minutes. Remove, flip, and repeat. After 4 minutes on the grill and 4 minutes in the oven remove the steak from the skillet and put it on a plate and tent with foil for 10 minutes. |
