STEAKBURGER WITH TANGY CARAMELIZED ONIONS AND HERB BUTTER

Steps:

• Make the Tangy Caramelized Onions:
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add onions, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are softened and starting to brown, about 10 minutes.
• Reduce heat to medium. Add tomato paste and cook, stirring, until warmed through, about 30 seconds. Add Worcestershire and vinegar, scraping up brown bits on bottom of pan. Stir in butter and brown sugar and continue to cook, adding water by the tablespoonful if skillet starts to dry out, until onions are completely softened and caramelized, 15-20 minutes more. Add 1 Tbsp. water and cook, scraping up brown bits, until incorporated, about 30 seconds. Let cool.
• Make the Herb Butter:
• Cook vinegar and shallot in a small skillet over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until vinegar has reduced and skillet is almost dry, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl and let cool slightly, about 5 minutes.
• Place butter and salt in a medium bowl. Using a fork, mash shallot mixture into butter until incorporated. Gently fold in tarragon or parsley. Chill until ready to use.
• Make the burger:
• Divide ground steak into 4 portions. Shape into 4"-wide, 3/4"-thick, loosely packed patties. Make a small indentation in the center with your thumb to help keep it flat as it grills. Chill until ready to use.
• Prepare a grill or grill pan for medium-high heat; generously oil grates. Generously season patties on both sides with salt and pepper. Grill, indented side down, until lightly charred on the bottom, 2-3 minutes. Flip, top with cheese, and continue to grill to desired doneness, 2-3 minutes more for medium-rare. Transfer burgers to a platter and let rest 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, grill buns until toasted, about 30 seconds. Generously spread cut sides of bun with Herb Butter, if using. Top each bottom bun with lettuce, patty, and 3 Tbsp. caramelized onions, then close burgers.
• Do Ahead
• Onions can be made 5 days ahead; cover and chill. Butter can be made 3 days ahead; cover and chill. Bring both to room temperature before serving.

PAN SEARED T-BONE STEAK

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. A half-hour before cooking, remove steak from refrigerator.
• Heat a large skillet over high heat. Pat steak dry and season generously with salt and pepper. Add oil to hot skillet and when it begins to smoke add steak. Reduce heat slightly and cook steak until browned, about 4 minutes on each side. Transfer skillet to the oven. Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted sideways into the steak registers 120 degrees F for medium-rare, about 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 10 minutes. Cut steak from the bone and carve meat across the grain.

ALL-AMERICAN T-BONE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Put an ovenproof griddle pan on a high heat. Season the steak on both sides, then rub both sides with the garlic cloves, thyme and olive oil. Put the steak in the hot pan and char the underside for 2 mins or until griddle lines appear. Turn the steak over to brown the other side, rub the top with the thyme again, then lay the thyme and garlic on top of the meat.
• Once evenly browned all over with griddle lines, put the thyme and garlic to one side, hold the steak with a pair of tongs to cook its fatty side and render it down so it's soft rather than gristly. This will take a few mins. Lay the steak flat again, put the thyme, garlic and butter on top and transfer the pan to the oven to finish cooking for 4-5 mins, until the meat reaches 62-65C on a probe thermometer (or until cooked to your liking).
• Rest the meat for 5-6 mins. Serve on a board or large plate in the middle of the table.
