First things first. For a great tasting steak you need a great cut. I like to use a 1 and a 1/2 inch thick delmonico (rib eye) cut with a nice marbling in the flesh. Also it really helps a ton if you let your meat become room temp before cooking. Don't be afraid of letting your raw steaks set out for an hour.

Go ahead and fire up your grill or broiler. Set it to 500 or high.

Seasoning the beef. I like to use montreal steak seasoning, thyme and rosemary for my "crust." First break it down to a powder in a mortar and pestal, add the thyme, mince the Rosemary and add that too. Then i sprinkle it along the side of a plate in a line and kind of roll and dab the edges of my steak until its completely covered. This will make a wonderful crust that will carry flavor into the meat. I then use salt, pepper and parsley to season the faces of the steak. Remember, the longer your steak sits after adding the spices the more it will permeate into the meat.

Grilling. Ok so lets take that bad boy out to the grill. Throw it on! Wait 2 minutes, rotate the steak 45 degrees and wait 2 more minutes. Flip it and repeat the last step for wonderful sear and grill marks. Remember when you flip it to move it to a hot spot to ensure even grill marks. This should take a total 12 minutes or less. If you keep opening your grill it will take longer to cook and you will over char the meat. So remember keep the grill closed. To avoid excess flame up turn the grill down or use salt on the grill Shields.

Meat temps. If you want it better than medium rare you need to check your steak either with a thermometer or by look and touch. 130°F is where i like it. If it seeps blood its moving passed rare. If it seeps clear juice you are passing medium. Taste the love. Enjoy!

Remember those poached mushrooms from my other recipie? Throw those right on top, sauce and all. Delish!
