GRASS-FED STEAKS WITH KALAMATA-OLIVE CHIMICHURRI

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in heavy medium skillet over medium heat. Add sliced garlic, red pepper, and bay leaf. Stir until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add shallots and sauté until just translucent, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in parsley, olives, and vinegar. Add 1 tablespoon water. Add more water by teaspoonfuls to thin as needed. Season chimichurri with salt and pepper. DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature.
• Rub steaks with 1 tablespoon oil and pressed garlic. Sprinkle both sides of each steak with 1/2 teaspoon paprika, 1/4 teaspoon coarse salt, cayenne, and generous amount of black pepper. Let stand at room temperature 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.
• Preheat oven to 400°F. Brush heavy very large oven-proof skillet (preferably cast-iron) with oil. Heat over high heat until almost smoking. Add steaks. Cook until browned, about 5 minutes. Turn steaks and transfer skillet to oven. Roast until instant-read thermometer inserted horizontally into steaks registers 110°F to 115°F for rare, about 10 minutes.
• Let steaks rest 5 minutes. Thinly slice crosswise. Spoon chimichurri over.

NEW YORK STRIP STEAK

Steps:

• Combine coffee, brown sugar, allspice, salt and pepper to taste. Pat rub on both sides of each steak.
• Prep grill for cooking over indirect heat. You'll need a medium-high temperature of around 350°F (180°C) to grill steaks. For natural gas grills, preheat grill to medium-high and turn off one burner to achieve indirect heat.
• Grease grate with canola oil. Place steaks on grill over direct heat. Cook for four to five minutes per side, or until well-marked. Move steaks to the cooler part of the grill and close lid. Cook for two to three minutes for medium-rare, or to the desired tenderness.
• Remove steaks from grill and let rest for five minutes before serving.

NEW YORK STRIP STEAK WITH BRANDIED MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Heat 1 T of the oil in large skillet over medium-high heat.
• Season steaks with 1 t of the salt and 1/4 t of the pepper.
• Place steaks in the hot pan and cook, turning to brown both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare.
• Remove steaks and cover loosely with foil to keep warm.
• In same skillet, add the remaining 1 T oil.
• Add mushrooms and cook, stirring for 10-15 minutes, until mushrooms are golden and soft.
• Add thyme, 1/4 t salt and garlic and cook for 2 more minutes.
• Remove mushrooms with a slotted spoon; place in a bowl.
• In same skillet, add brandy and cook until brandy is almost evaporated, about 1 minute.
• Add cream and cook 2-3 minutes, until slightly thickened.
• Return mushrooms and their juices to the pan and simmer for 2 more minutes.

THE PERFECT NEW YORK STRIP STEAK

Steps:

• Roast the steaks at low heat: Preheat oven to 275 degrees F. Season steaks generously with salt on all sides. Place steaks on a wire rack fitted over a rimmed baking sheet; this will ensure even airflow all around the steaks as they cook. Cook for 25-35 minutes, checking after 20 minutes, until internal temperature reaches 125 degrees F. (Note: Once the temperature reaches 80 degrees F, it will climb quickly.) For an accurate temperature, place the thermometer through the side into the center of the steak. When steak reaches 125 degrees F, let rest 10 minutes.
• Sear the steaks: Heat skillet over high heat. Add the oil and heat until smoking; then add the steaks. Cook for 1 minute, undisturbed. Flip steaks, drain off the fat, then cook another 1 minute, undisturbed. Meanwhile, gently smash the garlic cloves with the heel of your hand until you hear a crack, leaving the peels attached.Add 2 tablespoons of butter, garlic cloves, thyme, and rosemary to the skillet. Tilt the pan and continually baste the steaks with the hot butter as it browns and gets foamy. Take the pan off the heat as you baste if the butter is browning too quickly or the herbs and garlic are starting to burn. Add remaining tablespoon of butter; once the first side is well-browned, flip the steaks and continue basting-a French technique called arroser-until the butter is no longer foamy. (Once the steaks have been flipped, Chef Pandel continues basting with his pan entirely off the heat; you may need to do the same, depending on the variables of stove temperature, pan, and the steaks themselves.) When it's no longer foamy, the butter has done its job and the steaks should be well seared with a nice crust. Check the temperature of the steaks: for medium-rare, the internal temperature should be 125 degrees F-130 degrees F. Remove steaks to the rack to rest, about 10 minutes. Serve right away.
