Even steak purists will make an exception when they taste the Cajun Spice Rub on this steak, out of the creative genius of Smith & Wollensky Executive Chef Matthew King. He's shared the recipe so you can make it at home, too. Just be sure, when grilling, to make sure that you allow the steaks to drain off the marinade oil before it hits the grill. That's because the oil will reach the smoking point far sooner than the natural fats and will leave you with some of the delicious flavor of the marinade. This pairs perfectly with Smith & Wollensky's Creamy Corn with Manchego-just click the link and get the recipe as well as some of Chef Matt's tips for easy preparation.

BOURBON STREET RIB-EYE STEAK



Bourbon Street Rib-Eye Steak image

After eating this style of steak in a restaurant a few times, I worked on making my own marinade. The results are tender and do not have an overbearing bourbon taste. This marinade is very different from the only other one I have seen on this site.

Time 15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup water
⅔ cup bourbon whiskey
½ cup soy sauce
¼ cup packed brown sugar
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons lemon juice
4 (6 ounce) beef rib-eye steaks

Steps:

  • Whisk together the water, bourbon whiskey, soy sauce, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, and lemon juice in a bowl, and pour into a plastic zipper bag. Add the rib-eye steaks, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 8 hours or overnight.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
  • Remove the rib-eye steaks from the marinade, and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade. Grill the steaks on high, 1 to 2 minutes per side, to sear the meat. Move the steaks to a cooler part of the grill and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes per side, if desired.
