Grilled Loin Steak with BBQ Rub

by

This could be called beef at its best. A simple rub including chili powder, garlic and brown sugar adds that special touch.

Grilled Loin Steak with BBQ Rub

Ingredients

  • 2 to 4 McLaughlin Farm Porterhouse, T-Bone, or Strip Steaks cut 1½ inch thick
  • Coarse Salt

BBQ Rub

  • 2 tablespoons chili powder
  • 2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground cumin
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper

Instructions

Thaw steak(s) in refrigerator 1-2 days.

Combine BBQ Rub ingredients; press evenly onto beef steaks.

Place steaks on grid over medium, ash-covered coals or medium heat on preheated gas grill. Grill, covered, about 4 minutes per side. With an instant thermometer, check the temperature and pull steaks off at 125°F. Do not overcook.

Let steaks rest for 5 to 10 minutes, covered. As they rest, the temperature will rise to 135°F for medium rare. Remove bones and carve steaks across the grain, into thin slices. Season with coarse salt, as desired.
