STEAK BITES

Steps:

• Trim off the excess fat from the meat, and then cut strips less than 1-inch wide. Rotate the meat and cut into small bite-size pieces. If you see any more large chunks of fat, gristle or long silvery membrane, cut them off.
• Sprinkle generously with kosher salt and freshly ground pepper. Toss the meat around a bit to thoroughly coat with the seasonings.
• Next, turn on your ventilation fan-you'll need it! Heat the skillet over medium-high to high heat. As the pan heats, add about 2 tablespoons butter to the skillet. Allow the butter to melt, and then get very brown, before you add the meat.
• Place some of the meat in the pan in a single layer. It should sizzle loudly when it hits the pan - if it doesn't, the pan isn't hot enough. Don't stir or disrupt the meat for 30 to 45 seconds. You want it to sizzle and brown on one side. Scoop as many steak bites as you can with your spatula and flip them over. Repeat until all the meat is turned. Cook for an additional 30 to 45 seconds-just long enough to sear the outside of the meat but NOT cook the inside.
• Remove the meat to a clean plate. Add a little more butter to the pan and repeat the cooking process with the next batch just as before. Lastly, when all the meat is nicely browned and removed to the plate, pour all that browned/blackened butter all over the meat. And enjoy!

STEAK TIPS

Steps:

• Using a sharp knife, peel all of the silver skin and 90 percent of the surface fat from the meat. Cut the meat into 3-by-3-inch cubes and place them in a non-reactive container.
• Mix the oil, Tuckaway Steak Seasoning and vinegar in a bowl; pour over the meat. Mix with your hands to be sure all surfaces are covered with marinade. Marinate the meat in the refrigerator for 3 to 5 days. (More time equals more flavor!)
• Grill to your liking and serve with some homemade potato salad, coleslaw, or any delicious side you can think of.
• In a bowl, mix together the orange juice, minced garlic, minced onion, ground mustard, mustard seed, granulated garlic, granulated onion, salt and pepper.
