Ingredients
- 2 – 3lbs Strip Steak
- 2TBSP SaltSeason to personal preference
- 1TBSP PepperSeason to preference
- 1bag charcoalShould be all natural lump charcoal. DO NOT USE BRIQUETTES!
Instructions
- Steak – In the video, I am using 2 Strip Streaks that are a little over an 1” thick. I wouldn’t go over 1.5″ thick for this recipe as thicker steaks will require indirect heat.
- Let the steak rest for at least 20 – 30 minutes at room temperature, before cooking
- Season with salt and pepper. Maybe this is cheating because cavemen didn’t have pepper? The steak will also pick up flavor from being cooked directly on the charcoal.
- Use all natural lump charcoal to heat fire. Allow charcoal to heat to a mostly white color & blow off any ash before dropping steaks.
- I cooked the steaks at a strict 2 minutes / side. May need more time for thicker steaks.
- Remove steaks from fire to plate. Sometimes a piece of charcoal will stick to the steak but should shake loose easily.
- Allow steak to rest 5 minutes before eating.
