Cowboy steak seasoning is a blend of spices and herbs that is used to flavor steak before cooking. It is typically made with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, chili powder, cumin, and salt. Unlike traditional steak seasonings, cowboy steak seasoning does not contain any black pepper which makes it a great option for people who are sensitive to pepper. Cowboy steak seasoning can be purchased pre-made or you can make your own blend at home. No matter how you choose to get it, cowboy steak seasoning is a great way to add flavor to your next steak dinner.

COWBOY STEAK



Cowboy Steak image

Streaked with gorgeous marbling, as juicy as they come, and equipped with a bone that translates into big steak flavor, these Bone-In Ribeyes (a.k.a. Cowboy Steaks) are almost as impressive before they hit the grill as they are coming off of it.

Provided by Philip and Kelly Anthony

Categories     Main Course

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 tablespoons Kosher salt
2 tablespoons coarse black pepper
4 cowboy cut ribeyes or bone-in ribeyes ((just over 1" thick))

Steps:

  • Set the steaks out at room temperature for 30 minutes prior to grilling.
  • Prepare a gas or charcoal grill and bring to medium-high heat. To test whether or not your grill is hot enough, (carefully) hold your hand about 6" from the grate. It should be so hot, that you have to move it by the count of 3.
  • While you're waiting on the grill to come to temperature, season the steaks liberally with the salt and pepper on both sides and all around the edges. Pat to adhere.
  • Add the steaks to the hot grill. For medium-rare, cook over direct heat for 4 minutes on each side, turning only once throughout the entire cooking process. Watch for flare-ups. Your goal internal temperature is 130°.
  • Set the steaks aside and allow to rest for 5-10 minutes, serve and enjoy.

COWBOY STEAK CHILI IN A CROCK POT



Cowboy Steak Chili in a Crock Pot image

While searching for an authentic Texas Style Chili, I discovered this recipe from http://recipes.suite101.com/article.cfm/cowboy_steak_chili. There are so many chili recipes with many variations for all types of taste buds, but this one really knocked my socks off. While the chili recipe above will stand up even if all you add is chili powder, this mix will give it more complex depth of flavor. The idea comes from Cowboy Steak, where the essential "Cowboy" element is ground coffee. Was this the result of a creative campfire cook. Or some happy chuck wagon mistake? You can also use this seasoning to make Cowboy Steak. If you do, it is traditional to add onion powder and garlic powder to the mix. You may want to mix up enough to use later as a dry rub for ribs or chops or even chicken. If you do, bloom the mixture just before using. The only change I made was to cook the chili for 8 hours on low in the crock pot before serving. I truly believe that one of the secrets to good chili is a looooooonnnnngggg cooking time. YEEHAA

  • Use a good quality steak seasoning: There are many different steak seasonings available, so choose one that you like the taste of. You can also make your own steak seasoning using a variety of herbs and spices.
