Tyler Florences Ultimate Steak Sandwich Recipes

TYLER FLORENCE'S ULTIMATE STEAK SANDWICH RECIPE

Steps:

• MAKE THE BRECHAMEL SAUCE:.
• Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat.
• Add the flour and stir constantly to incorporate - you do not want any color.
• Gradually pour in the milk as you stir, and whisk out any lumps.
• As the mixture thickens up continue to stir until it reaches a boil - this ensures the flour is cooked completely.
• Dump in the cheese and stir for another minute until the cheese is completely melted.
• Stir in the horseradish and season with salt and pepper, then set aside to keep warm.
• MAKE ARUGULA MAYONNAISE:.
• Put arugula in a food processor with the lemon juice and salt and pepper.
• Top with mayonnaise and process until well combined.
• Give it a taste and adjust seasoning if required.
• PREPARE THE STEAK:.
• Take the finely sliced steak and shingle it out into 2 portions on a clean cutting board lined with parchment.
• Put the shingled meat between 2 pieces of plastic wrap and pound out using either a saute pan or a meat mallet.
• After first pounding, remove the plastic wrap, fold in the edges, replace plastic and pound the meat some more.
• Store wrapped in plastic in the refrigerator.
• Now the meat is ready when you want to cook it.
• Heat a large, flat grill-pan over medium heat.
• Split hoagie rolls in half, drizzle with olive oil and place onto griddle.
• Take the meat out of the refrigerator.
• Peel off 1 side of the plastic wrap and season with salt and pepper.
• Put this side down in the pan and then quickly peel off the other side of the plastic wrap and season again.
• Cook slowly in the pan until juicy and tender and just past pink in color.
• Turn the meat over and then fold with some of the cheese sauce.
• MAKE FENNEL SLAW:.
• Finely slice fennel using a mandoline, or the grater attachment on your food processor.
• In a large mixing bowl combine the lemon juice, mayonnaise, and sour cream and stir to combine.
• Add the finely sliced fennel and coleslaw mix, herbs, and olive oil and fold together.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• ASSEMBLE:.
• Smear each half of the roll with arugula mayonnaise.
• Top the bottom with the steak and cheese, then lay a scoop of fennel slaw over the top.

NY STRIP STEAKS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
• Allow the steaks to come to room temperature, 30 to 45 minutes. Season the steaks with some kosher salt. Heat a large, oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat until hot, about 2 minutes. Add the olive oil to the pan. Carefully place the steaks in the pan and allow them to sear untouched until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Flip the steaks and take the pan off the heat. Add the butter and thyme sprigs. Spoon the melted butter over the steaks and continue to baste for about 45 seconds. Transfer the skillet to the center of the oven and cook the steaks until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 135 degrees F., 5 to 7 minutes for medium-rare.
• Carefully remove the hot skillet from the oven, transfer the steaks to a cutting board and allow the meat to rest for 10 to 15 minutes. Slice the steaks and arrange on a serving plate. Spoon the remaining pan sauce over the steaks, sprinkle with sea salt and drizzle with olive oil.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300°F.
• Combine 4 cloves roughly chopped garlic with salt, pepper and olive oil. Add rosemary leaves and thyme leaves. Smear around the bowl and squeeze in your fist to bruise and combine. Smear this paste all over the short ribs on a baking sheet. Place sheet in oven and roast 2 1/2 hours, until the meat is falling off the bone.
• Heat 2 T olive oil over medium-high heat in a large skillet. Add mushrooms and sear 3-5 minutes until browned. Add shallots and garlic; cook until garlic is fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Move pan away from open flame and add cognac to deglaze; return pan to heat and scrape any browned bits off the bottom of the pan. Add heavy cream. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook until reduced by half. Turn off heat and add mustard and sour cream; stir well. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
• While sauce cooks, prepare noodles according to package directions. Drain and toss with butter and a little pepper while hot.
• Remove meat from bones and slice crosswise, 1/2" thick. Serve noodles, topped with sauce, then place meat on top. Garnish with parsley and green onions.
