Tom’s Two Step Steak Recipe

Ingredients / Tools

• Thick-cut steak (Tom loves 44 Farms, but any brand will do just fine)
• Dry rub steak seasoning or coarse salt and pepper combo (Meat Church rubs will not disappoint)
• Slice of butter (optional canola oil)
• Meat thermometer

Directions

Step 1

Bring steak to room temp by removing it from the fridge for at least 1 hour. Pat dry if needed (never cook cold or wet steak). Preheat grill to 275-300°F with an indirect setup.

Step 2

Season steak with your favorite dry rub, but don’t overpower. Let sit for 10 minutes.

Step 3

Grill steak until internal temp reaches 120°F, then let it rest for 10 minutes.

Step 4

Fire up cast-iron skillet on the grill or stove to 500-550º+ with a little canola oil or butter. The key is to get the cast iron hot!

Step 5

Sear each side for about 1 minute, or until internal temp reaches 130°F. Top it off with thick slice of butter

Step 6

Rest steak on a cutting board for 5-10 minutes. Slice against the grain and enjoy!
