STEAKHOUSE STEAKS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Heat a large, well-seasoned cast iron skillet over high heat until very hot, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Meanwhile, pat the steaks dry with a paper towel and brush them lightly with vegetable oil. Combine the fleur de sel and cracked pepper on a plate and roll the steaks in the mixture, pressing lightly to evenly coat all sides.
• When the skillet is ready, add the steaks and sear them evenly on all sides for about 2 minutes per side, for a total of 10 minutes.
• Top each steak with a tablespoon of butter, if using, and place the skillet in the oven. Cook the steaks until they reach 120 degrees F for rare or 125 degrees F for medium-rare on an instant-read thermometer. (To test the steaks, insert the thermometer sideways to be sure you're actually testing the middle of the steak.)
• Remove the steaks to a serving platter, cover tightly with aluminum foil and allow to rest at room temperature for 10 minutes. Serve hot with Roquefort Chive Sauce on the side.
• Bring the heavy cream to a boil in a small heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook at a low boil, stirring occasionally, until the mixture has become thick and creamy, about 20 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat, add the cheese, salt, pepper and chives and whisk rapidly until the cheese melts.
• Yield: 4 servings

STEAKHOUSE STEAKS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
• Heat a large cast-iron skillet over high heat for 5 to 7 minutes.
• Meanwhile, pat dry the filets mignons with paper towels. Brush the filets lightly all over with the oil. Combine the fleur de sel and cracked pepper on a plate and roll the filets on all sides in the mixture, pressing lightly to help the salt and pepper adhere. The steaks should be evenly coated with the salt and pepper.
• When the pan is extremely hot, add the steaks and sear evenly on all sides (top, bottom, and sides) for about 2 minutes per side. (Be sure the cooking area is well ventilated.) You'll probably need about 3 turns to sear the sides and about 10 minutes total.
• Remove the pan from the heat and arrange all the filets flat in the pan. Top each with a tablespoon of butter, then place the pan in the oven. Cook the filets for 8 to 12 minutes to 120 degrees for rare and 125 degrees for medium-rare. Remove the steaks to a platter, cover tightly with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 5 to 10 minutes.

RIB-EYE STEAK

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to high heat.
• Place rib-eye steaks on a large platter and season with rub on all sides. Transfer seasoned steaks to the hot grill, and cook for 4 to 6 minutes on each side for medium-rare, longer if desired. Remove steaks and let rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
• In a small bowl, combine all ingredients, to taste. Adjust the ratio of spices to your preference.

PAN SEARED RIB EYE

Steps:

• Place 10 to 12-inch cast iron skillet in oven and heat oven to 500 degrees.
• Bring steak (s) to room temperature.
• When oven reaches temperature, remove pan and place on range over high heat.
• Coat steak lightly with oil and season both sides with a generous pinch of salt.
• Grind on black pepper to taste.
• Immediately place steak in the middle of hot, dry pan.
• Cook 30 seconds without moving.
• Turn with tongs and cook another 30 seconds, then put the pan straight into the oven for 2 minutes.
• Flip steak and cook for another 2 minutes.
• (This time is for medium rare steaks. If you prefer medium, add a minute to both of the oven turns.) Remove steak from pan, cover loosely with foil, and rest for 2 minutes.
• Serve whole or slice thin and fan onto plate.

DRY-RUBBED RIB EYE STEAK RESTAURANT STYLE

Steps:

• Combine all the spices in a bowl. Stir to evenly distribute all the ingredients. If you want to monitor the amount of salt, combine all the spices except the salt in a bowl. Add 1 tablespoon Kosher salt and stir. Taste the rub and then gradually add more salt to taste.
• Rub the outside of each steak on all sides generously with the rub and store any leftovers in an airtight container. Wrap each steak in plastic wrap two times, and refrigerate up to 24 hours (my preference) or at most 3 days. This makes the steak taste aged.
• Preheat a gas or charcoal grill until hot. Brush the grill to remove any left over food, then oil the grill. Remove the steaks from the refrigerator about 20 to 30 minutes before cooking and let them come to room temperature. Just before cooking, remove the plastic wrap and lightly oil the steaks with extra-virgin olive oil.
• Place the steaks on a very hot grill and char both sides of the steaks, a few minutes per side. When the outsides of the steaks have become well seared, move the steaks to a cooler part of the grill to continue cooking for 6 to 7 minutes per side for medium rare.
• Remove steaks 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 in slices to the thickness you prefer, up to 1 inch thick. Add the bone to the serving plate if you have folks who will appreciate it. If desired, drizzle the meat with extra-virgin olive oil. Serve immediately.

STEAKHOUSE RIB-EYE

Steps:

• Prepare your grill and add steaks when almost every bit of coal is white.
• Flip steaks once after a couple minutes while the steaks are still soft to the touch. Remove steaks from grill when there is a little resistance when you push the middle of the steak. You should be able to press one quarter of an inch for a medium rare steak.

MAJESTIC STEAKHOUSE RIB EYE

Steps:

• Combine sour cream, horseradish, roasted peppers, Worcestershire, Tabasco, pepper and salt in a mixing bowl. Set aside.
• Heat a grill. Brush the steaks with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Grill to desired doneness. Serve with the sauce.

STEAKHOUSE RIB EYES WITH CREAMED SPINACH

Steps:

• Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 350 degrees F. Place a rack over a rimmed baking sheet. Set aside. Pat the steaks dry with paper towels and season on both sides with salt and pepper.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat just until smoking. Place the steaks in the skillet and cook to sear, about 3 minutes. Flip to sear the other side, about 3 minutes. Transfer the steaks to the prepared rack and roast in the middle of the oven until the steaks are medium rare (an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the steaks will register 125 degrees F), about 12 minutes.
• Meanwhile, once you have transferred the steaks to the oven, immediately add the mushrooms to the skillet and season with salt and pepper. Reduce the heat to medium low and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Add parsley and toss to combine. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Keep warm.
• Transfer the steaks to a warmed serving platter, tent with foil, and let rest for 10 minutes. Remove any fat on the edges and cut the steaks into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Serve topped with mushrooms and with the spinach on the side.
• Melt the butter over medium-low heat in a medium saucepan. Add the shallot and cook until translucent, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Increase the heat to medium. Whisk in the flour and cook until foaming but not browned, about 1 minute. Whisk in the milk. Add the cayenne and nutmeg and season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil; continue cooking, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens, about 2 minutes.
• Add the spinach and stir to combine. Cook until heated through, 3 to 5 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed. Serve immediately.

RIB-EYE STEAKS THAT ARE SUPERB

Steps:

• Remove steaks from the refrigerator and let them sit for about 30 minutes to take the chill out of the meat.
• Now, coat both sides generously with coarse black pepper and granulated garlic powder.
• Heat an iron skillet or a heavy bottomed frying pan until very hot on high heat.
• For each steak, sprinkle onto the skillet, 3/4 teaspoon of coarse salt and allow salt to heat up for at least 1 minute.
• Place the steaks on the coarse salt and cook for 3 minutes; DO NOT DISTURB at all, DO NOT LOOK or even move the steaks.
• Turn the steaks over and cook for an additional 3 minutes; again DO NOT DISTURB at all.
• The cooking time of 6 minutes gives you a medium-rare steak; DO NOT OVERCOOK.
• If you desire to cook it to medium, then cook for an additional 30 seconds to 1 minute per side.
• Remove steaks to a plate, cover with foil and let rest for 5 minutes, so that all juices are absorbed by the meat.
• Scrape off any excess coarse pepper and salt if desired and discard.
• I prefer to slice the steaks on an angle about 1/4 inch to 3/8 inch thickness.
• Serve with freshly processed horseradish.
• NOTE; Make sure that the heat is on as HIGH as possible without burning at all times during cooking the steaks. This will vary depending on your cooktop.
• Do not use ordinary table salt.
• Beef Tenderloin steaks are also real great cooked in this manner. If using a steak thicker than 1 inch, add 1 extra minute per side for medium-rare.
