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

  • 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.

MORTON'S STEAKHOUSE CAJUN RIBEYE STEAKS



Morton's Steakhouse Cajun Ribeye Steaks image

Please use Recipe #474823 for Morton's Steakhouse Cajun Seasoning. This recipe comes from Morton's Chef Ben Ornelas. I have modified his recipe because he uses 4 3/4 C oil for 6 steaks and I have found that 1 C oil for marinade is sufficient for home cooks.

Provided by Rinshinomori

Categories     Steak

Time 15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 cup cajun seasoning, Morton (see recipe description for making) or 1 cup other cajun seasoning
6 (16 ounce) rib eye steaks, each about 1 1/2 inches thick
1 cup vegetable oil, such as canola or 1 cup safflower oil

Steps:

  • Put the Morton's Cajun seasoning in a large, shallow glass or ceramic pan. Press each side of the steaks into the seasoning to cover completely.
  • Remove the steaks and lightly pound each three to four times with a perforated meat mallet or small heavy skillet to soften but not flatten more than a little. Discard any remaining seasoning in the pan.
  • Pour the oil into the pan and add the steaks one by one. Flip over. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 8 hours and up to 24 hours. Alternatively, marinate the steaks in heavy-duty resealable plastic bags.
  • When you are ready to cook the steaks, remove them from the oil and let the oil drip off to remove the excess oil. The oil can flare on the grill or in the broiler.
  • Set the steaks aside for 30 to 60 minutes at room temperature and grill the steaks to your liking.

Tips:

  • For a more intense flavor, marinate the steaks in the Cajun seasoning for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
  • If you don't have a cast iron skillet, you can use a heavy-bottomed skillet or griddle.
  • Make sure the skillet is very hot before adding the steaks. This will help to sear the steaks and lock in the juices.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet. Cook the steaks in batches if necessary.
  • Cook the steaks to your desired doneness. For a medium-rare steak, cook for about 4-5 minutes per side.
  • Let the steaks rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the steak.
  • Serve the steaks with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.

Conclusion:

Cajun rib eye steaks are a delicious and flavorful dish that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of the Cajun seasoning and the juicy rib eye steak is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a new steak recipe, give Cajun rib eye steaks a try. You won't be disappointed.
