Recipe Instructions
Prepare your BBQ grill for cooking and ensure the grill is at the desired temperature.
Prepare your steak ahead of time by placing it on a wire rack, placed within a baking tray so that air can circulate around the meat.
Use rock salt or sea salt to season each side of the steak with salt.
Place the meat on the baking tray in the fridge for at least one hour so that the salt, by the process of osmosis, will allow the juices that initially come out of the meat go back in. The juices of the steak will then be nice and salty.
Once the meat has sat in the fridge on the wire rack for at least one hour remove it from the fridge.
Pat the meat dry with a paper towel on both sides. This will ensure the meat is ready to cook.
Place the steak on the heated BBQ grill and cook until the internal temperature of the meat reaches your desired level of doneness.
Once cooked, remove the steak from the BBQ grill onto a serving plate. Allow the steak to rest before slicing it so that the juices in the middle of the steak redistribute towards the outside.
Enjoy your succulent BBQ steak!
Tips
Cooking Times: As a rough guide, for a 1.2kg T Bone Steak, allow 40-45 mins for medium doneness.
Before placing your steak onto the BBQ grill, you can brush it with a little melted tallow. This will give the steak a beautiful crust.
A digital steak thermometer is a handy device to check the internal temperature of the meat while cooking on the grill, so that you cook your steak to perfection.
Serve your succulent steak with some oven roasted bone marrow.
Ideally, purchase your meat from pasture raised sources that are Nitrate, Nitrite & Additive Free.
Try and use white sea salt or rock salt that contains no anticaking agents or other additives.
