1/4 cup freshly ground black pepper
2 pounds hanger steak
1 cup finely chopped cooked collard greens
1 cup packed fresh parsley leaves, minced
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon prepared horseradish, or more as needed

Steps:

  • For Arnold's beef rub: Stir together the margarine, granulated garlic, paprika, salt and pepper in a bowl.
  • For the hanger steak: Rub hanger steak night before with Arnold's beef rub on top side. Let set, refrigerated, overnight.
  • For the collard green chimichurri: Add collard greens, parsley, olive oil, vinegar, horseradish, salt, sugar, pepper flakes, garlic and 1 cup water to a bowl. Stir and let sit, refrigerated, overnight. Taste and maybe add salt and more horseradish to taste.

Cook, stirring every few minutes so grits don't stick, until grits start to soften, about 15 minutes. Add Gouda, Parmesan, butter, white pepper and jalapeno and continue to cook on low, stirring, until all cheese is melted and grits are soft and creamy, 10 to 15 minutes. Add salt to taste little at a time.
  • Heat a charcoal grill for cooking with cherry wood chunks.
  • Cook hanger steak on top of coals and cherry wood chunks until medium-rare. Thinly slice steak. Serve on jalapeno cheese grits and covered in collard green chimichurri sauce.

GRILLED HANGER STEAK



Grilled Hanger Steak image

Hanger steaks are not usually found at a grocery store, because they are not plentiful. On one whole piece of beef, there will only be one hanger steak. It's a meaty-tasting cut, with an open texture, and I found it at a butcher shop. We like it with a simple wet rub, but it is also tasty with only salt and pepper. It cooks really quickly, so be sure the rest of your meal is ready before you put it on the grill. We like it with simple sides, like a baked potato and a tossed salad.

Time 2h20m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 pounds hanger steaks
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon onion powder
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, or to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
½ teaspoon sea salt, or to taste

Steps:

  • Trim away fat and membrane from the surface of the steak about 2 hours before cooking time. If the hanger steak is whole, gently tease the meat away from the long center sinew and discard it in order to create 2 long, thin steak pieces. Place trimmed steaks in a non-reactive baking dish.
  • Combine Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and ground black pepper in a small bowl. Rub spice mix over all the surfaces of the steak.
  • Cover steak with aluminum foil and allow to stand at room temperature for about 2 hours.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Rub the steaks with olive oil and lightly sprinkle with sea salt.
  • When the cooking grates are hot, place oiled steak onto the grate and cook steaks until firm and reddish-pink and juicy in the center, 2 to 3 minutes per side (medium-rare). An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C). Remove from the grill and tent with foil to allow residual heat to bring internal temperature up to 135 degrees F (57 degrees C).
  • Slice about 1/4 inch thick, across the steaks, and serve warm.

GRILLED MARINATED HANGER STEAK



Grilled Marinated Hanger Steak image

The long, relatively thin cut known as hanger steak may be labeled "butcher's steak," "bistro cut," or, if already cut lengthwise into two pieces, "steak strips." To prevent an overly chewy texture, hanger steak should be sliced thinly across the grain. This recipe can be doubled to feed a crowd or be used for sandwiches.

Number Of Ingredients 8

3/4 cup red wine
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more for grilling

5 garlic cloves, smashed and peeled
Coarse salt

Steps:

  • In a dish large enough to hold the meat, whisk together the wine, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, sugar, and pepper. Rub the meat with the garlic and place both in the marinade. Turn the meat to coat completely with the marinade. Cover and chill for at least 2 hours and up to overnight.
  • Bring the meat to room temperature. Prepare an outdoor grill or heavy saute pan. Remove the meat from the marinade and pat dry. Generously salt and pepper both sides. Place on the hot grill, cover and cook for 4 minutes. Turn and cook for an additional 6 to 8 minutes for medium rare, 140 degrees on an instant-read thermometer. Let the meat sit for at least 5 minutes before carving. This can also be cooked under the broiler.

The hanger steak is a thick strip of meat from the underside of the beef cow. It hangs between the rib and the loin and is part of the diaphragm. It is similar to the skirt steak because it is full of flavor but can become tough if it is not prepared correctly. This can be a really nice cut of meat to serve your family without paying too much for it. I am going to give you detailed instructions on how to do just that. Enjoy!

Time 1h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 (6 ounce) hanger steaks - fat and silver skin trimmed
1 ½ tablespoons canola oil
salt and pepper to taste
1 pound fresh green beans, trimmed
2 cloves garlic, minced
¼ cup canola oil
salt and pepper to taste
1 cup water
¼ cup white sugar
4 whole shallots
3 fluid ounces port wine
1 cup demi glace
½ cup butter, room temperature

Steps:

  • Lightly cover the steaks with canola oil and season generously with salt and pepper; cover and place in refrigerator until ready to grill.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate. Place a sheet of aluminum foil on about 1/3 of the grill surface.
  • Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil. Cook the green beans in the boiling water until heated through yet still firm, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain. Transfer to a large bowl. Add the garlic and 1/4 cup of canola oil to the green beans and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper; set aside.
  • Stir the water, sugar, and shallots together in a saucepan until the sugar dissolves; cover the pan and bring the mixture to a boil. Drain the liquid and return the shallots to the pan. Add the port wine and demi glace to the saucepan and place over medium heat; cook until the liquid reduces to about half its original volume. Stir the butter into the mixture until it melts. Remove the pan from the heat. Season with salt as needed. Keep the saucepan covered until the steaks are prepared.
  • Spread the green beans onto the part of the grill prepared with aluminum foil and allow to finish cooking while grilling the steaks.
  • Cook the steaks until they start to firm, and are reddish-pink and juicy in the center, about 2 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C). Allow the steaks to rest 5 minutes before placing onto individual plates. Spoon the sauce over the steaks. Serve the green beans on the side.

Tips:

  • Choosing the Right Cut of Steak: Select hanger steaks that are about 1 inch thick and have good marbling for optimal flavor and tenderness.
  • Tenderizing the Steak: To make the hanger steak more tender, you can use a meat mallet or a fork to gently pound the steak before cooking. This will help break down the muscle fibers and result in a more tender texture.
  • Marinating the Steak: Marinating the hanger steak is an optional step, but it can help enhance the flavor and make the steak more flavorful. You can use a simple marinade made with olive oil, garlic, herbs, and spices, or you can try a more complex marinade with ingredients like yogurt, soy sauce, or citrus juice.
  • Grilling the Steak: When grilling the hanger steak, make sure to preheat your grill to a high temperature. This will help sear the outside of the steak and create a nice crust while keeping the inside juicy and tender. Cook the steak for a few minutes per side, depending on the desired level of doneness.
  • Resting the Steak: After grilling, let the hanger steak rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
  • Accompaniments: Grilled salsa is a great accompaniment to hanger steak, but you can also serve it with other sides like roasted vegetables, grilled corn on the cob, or a simple salad.

Conclusion:

Hanger steak is a delicious and versatile cut of meat that can be grilled, pan-seared, or roasted. When cooked properly, it is tender, juicy, and flavorful.
