HIMALAYAN SALT BLOCK RIB-EYE



Himalayan Salt Block Rib-Eye image

Kick your steak grilling up a notch with a Himalayan salt block. It makes an amazing presentation for any get-together! In San Diego, I worked at a waterfront restaurant. The views were beautiful, and the chef had to make sure his dishes reflected that beauty. One day, he created a seasonal dish using a Himalayan salt block to cook the meat. I was instantly in love with this grilling technique and have used it ever since!

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h5m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 boneless rib-eye steaks, trimmed (about 1 pound each)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon coarse black pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 sprigs rosemary
Flaky sea salt

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill to 250 degrees F.
  • Place a Himalayan salt block onto the grates and cover the grill. After 20 minutes, raise the grill temperature to 325 degrees F. After 20 more minutes, raise the grill temperature to 400 degrees F.
  • Meanwhile, bring the rib-eyes to room temperature.
  • Brush both sides of the rib-eyes with the vegetable oil. Season the rib-eyes with the kosher salt and pepper on both sides.
  • Place the rib-eyes on the Himalayan salt block and cover. Cook until the rib-eyes are golden and caramelized on the bottom and the internal temperature reads 125 degrees F, 7 to 10 minutes. Flip the rib-eyes, then apply 1 tablespoon of butter to the top of each and rest 1 sprig of rosemary on top of the butter. Continue to cook, covered, until the internal temperature reads 130 degrees F for medium rare, another 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the rib-eyes to a cutting board and allow to rest for 5 minutes. Remove the rosemary sprigs and finish with a sprinkle of flaky sea salt.

SALT BLOCK-GRILLED FLANK STEAK



Salt Block-Grilled Flank Steak image

Flank steak has to be pretty much the best thing this side of getting a foot rub while drinking a root beer float. But it's tough. It's ornery. There is a common strategy to making flank steak supple enough to eat without popping your jaw out of joint: marinating. I've made coffee and ginger marinades, lime and tequila marinades, smoked salt and chile pepper marinades, vinegar and sugar marinades, you name it. Every time, great steak. But think of the poor steak: a wonderful, flavor-packed piece of meat subjugated to intense acids and sugars and salts. What if you're a purist, racked with guilt? The flank steak puts you in a quandary. How do we get the elemental flavor out of a meat that resists the teeth? As usual, the solution to every quandary is to think outside the box, or in this case, outside the pan. The two simple tricks to this dish (if you can call steak seared on a giant block of salt a dish) are cutting the meat thin, against the grain, and cooking it fast at a high temperature. Oh, and don't cook it on indifferent steel, but on a block of glowing, flavor-packing, tenderizing Himalayan pink salt.

Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 2

1 (two-pound) flank steak
1 (8 by 8 by 2-inch or larger) block Himalayan pink salt

Steps:

  • Cut the flank steak lengthwise along the grain of the meat, creating two long strips. Then, turning the piece perpendicular to the blade of your knife, cut the strips across the fiber of the meat into 1/4-inch-thick strips, each about 2 to 3 inches long. Set aside.
  • Heat the salt block on a stove, as described in Heating on page 269.
  • To test whether the block is hot enough, place one piece of meat on the block. It should sizzle vigorously (or however it is that a piece of meat sizzles when it is really sizzling). Alternatively, use an infrared thermometer, or try to hold your hand 2 or 3 inches away from the block. If you can't, it's hot enough.
  • Place about 12 pieces of steak on the block, or as many as the block will hold without the pieces touching. After 5 seconds (yes, just five seconds), flip and cook for another 5 seconds. Repeat with the remaining steak and serve immediately.
  • Make sure the salt block is off the heat, and let it cool to room temperature before cleaning and storing it (see page 270).
