Best 6 Charred Garlic Rubbed Rib Steak Recipes

RIB-EYE STEAK WITH HERB BUTTER AND CHARRED PEPPERS

Steps:

• Lay the steak flat on a board; tie kitchen twine tightly around the sides (including the bone) to help the steak keep its shape during cooking.
• Grind the mushrooms in a spice grinder or blender; transfer to a bowl and mix with the garlic, balsamic vinegar, brown sugar, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 1/2 tablespoons rosemary, the red pepper flakes and 2 teaspoons salt. Cut 8 deep slits about 1 inch apart all over the steak; fill each slit with some of the mushroom mixture, then rub the rest all over the meat. Transfer the steak to a plate, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate 2 to 4 hours. Remove from the refrigerator about 1 hour before grilling.
• Meanwhile, combine the butter, scallions, parsley, the remaining 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce and 1/2 tablespoon rosemary, and 1 teaspoon salt in a bowl. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Preheat a grill to medium high, then prepare for indirect heat: For gas, turn off the burners on one side. For charcoal, push the coals to one side. Brush the steak with the olive oil, then place on the cooler side of the grill (indirect heat). Cover and cook, turning occasionally, until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 110 degrees F to 120 degrees F, 20 to 30 minutes. Move the steak to the hotter side of the grill (direct heat) and cook until the thermometer registers 125 degrees F, 2 to 3 more minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 15 minutes, spreading with some of the herb butter.
• Meanwhile, grill the peppers over direct heat, turning, brushing with the lemon juice and seasoning with salt, until charred, 8 to 10 minutes. Top the steak with more herb butter and serve with the peppers.

DRY-RUBBED RIB-EYE

Steps:

• Combine all of the dry ingredients in a bowl. Use your fingers to make sure that all of the ingredients are evenly distributed. Rub the outside of each steak generously with the rub. Wrap each steak in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 24 hours, 2 to 3 days is better. This will make the steak taste like it has been aged.
• Preheat a gas or charcoal grill. Brush and oil the grill to loosen and remove any crud. Remove the steaks from the refrigerator about 20 to 30 minutes before cooking. Right before cooking remove the plastic wrap and lightly oil the steaks. Place the steaks on a very hot grill to put a char on both sides of the steak. When both sides of the steak have become well charred move the steak to a cooler part of the grill to continue cooking for 6 to 7 minutes per side for medium rare. Remove the steak from the grill and let rest in a warm spot for 7 to 8 minutes. Cut the steak off the bone and slice on the bias across the grain. Drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil and serve immediately.

SEAR-ROASTED RIB STEAK WITH GARLIC BUTTER

Steps:

• Chop the garlic finely. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon salt over the garlic and continue to chop it, occasionally smashing and smearing the garlic with the flat side of the knife, until the garlic becomes paste-like. (Alternatively, mash the garlic and salt together in a mortar and pestle.) Put the garlic paste, butter, thyme, and pepper in a small bowl. Fold the softened butter over and onto the garlic and thyme, mashing it down with the back of a spoon or spatula. Use a sheet of plastic wrap to help shape the butter into a log, wrap the log well with the plastic wrap, and refrigerate until ready to use. (The garlic butter can be made up to 3 days ahead; it can also be frozen, well wrapped, for a couple of months.)
• Melt half of the garlic-butter mixture in a small pan over medium heat. (Rewrap and save the other half for future use; it's great stuff under the skin of a chicken before roasting or tossing into the broth of steamed mussels.)
• Heat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• In a large ovenproof saute pan, heat the vegetable oil over high heat until very hot. Season the steaks with a little salt and pepper. Add the steaks to the pan and brown them well on 1 side, about 5 minutes. Turn the steaks and brush them liberally with the garlic butter. Finish cooking the steaks in the oven, brushing them occasionally with more garlic butter, until done, about another 5 minutes. (The time will vary depending on how you like your steaks cooked and how thick they are.) Remove the steaks from the oven and allow them to rest for 5 minutes before serving. Serve smaller steaks whole or sliced thinly across the grain. Cut larger steaks into 2 servings or into thin slices. Spoon any remaining juices from the pan onto the meat as well.

RIB STEAK TAGLIATA

Steps:

• Combine the oil, garlic, parsley, thyme and rosemary leaves in a food processor. Pulse to finely chop. Pour half the oil-herb marinade over the steaks in a large dish and marinate the steaks 2 hours and up to 24 hours, refrigerated.
• Preheat a cast-iron pan or outdoor grill for a medium-high heat. Remove the steaks from the marinade, wipe off excess and sprinkle with coarse salt and black pepper. Place the steaks in the pan or over the hottest area of the grill (moving the steaks around to a cooler section of the grill to prevent too much flaring and reduce excessive charring).
• Cook the steaks to desired doneness by turning only once, cook one side and then the other, moving the steaks only to permit even cooking. Allow 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. After turning the steaks to the second side, brush on some of the remaining oil-herb marinade for added flavor. After cooking to desired doneness, remove the steaks from the grill and allow them to rest for 5 minutes.
• Drizzle the arugula with oil and balsamic vinegar in a large bowl. Shave Parmesan over top (about 1/2 cup), toss and place equal portions on each of 4 plates.
• Carve the resting steaks into long ribbons of beef, placing several slices on each of the four salads. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Squeeze a little lemon juice over the steaks, drizzle with some olive oil and serve.

GRILLED DRY-RUBBED RIB-EYE STEAKS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine pimenton, garlic powder, oregano, coriander, 2 tablespoons salt, and 2 teaspoons pepper. Generously season both sides of steaks with mixture. Rub both sides of each steak with olive oil. Let stand on a rimmed baking sheet at least 30 minutes and up to 1 hour.
• Preheat grill to medium-high; clean and lightly oil grates. Grill steaks, rotating once, until well-browned on outsides and cooked to desired doneness, 6 to 7 minutes per side for medium-rare (about 125 degrees on an instant-read thermometer). Transfer to a platter; loosely cover with parchment-lined foil. Let stand at least 15 and up to 30 minutes.
• Toss scallions in a bowl with olive oil; season with salt and pepper. Grill over medium-high, turning, until lightly charred in places and tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Slice steaks against the grain and serve with charred scallions.

HANGER STEAK WITH CHARRED SCALLION SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Toast walnuts on a rimmed baking sheet, tossing once, until golden brown, 8-10 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl. Finely grate garlic over warm walnuts and toss with 6 Tbsp. oil.
• Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high. Season steaks with kosher salt and black pepper; sprinkle all over with Aleppo-style pepper. Rub with 2 Tbsp. oil and cook, turning occasionally, until deeply browned and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 130° for medium-rare, 10-12 minutes. Transfer steaks to a cutting board.
• Wipe out skillet and reduce heat to medium. Place scallions and 1 Tbsp. oil in skillet, season with kosher salt, and cook, turning occasionally, until softened and deeply charred, about 4 minutes. Transfer to cutting board; trim and cut into 1" pieces. Add to bowl with walnut mixture along with vinegar, cornichons, capers, mustard, thyme, and sugar and toss to combine; season with kosher salt and black pepper.
• Slice steak against the grain and sprinkle with sea salt. Serve with scallion sauce and more Aleppo-style pepper.
