Directions:

  • 24 hours before grilling liberally season the steaks with Hotshot spice blend, making sure to thoroughly coat the steaks with the rub, refrigerate overnight.

  • 45 minutes before cooking remove the steaks from the refrigerator and allow to come to room temperature.

  • Start a charcoal fire or heat a gas grill on high.

  • Coat the steaks with 2 Tbsp. olive oil.

  • Sear the steaks on the hottest part of the grill.

  • Allow the meat to sear undisturbed for two to three minutes, this will produce a proper crust and ensure that the steaks won’t stick to the grill grates.

  • Using tongs, flip the steaks and repeat searing the second side.

  • To finish the steaks move them away from direct heat in order to avoid an overly charred crust.

  • These thick cut steaks will usually take between 14 - 16 minutes to achieve a medium-rare temperature. Check the internal temperature of the meat using an instant read or digital thermometer.

  • 120 degrees medium-rare, 130 medium, 140 medium-well. Remove the steaks from the grill and allow to rest for approximately 10 minutes.

  • Carve and serve with a sprinkling of salt and pepper, a squeeze of fresh orange  and a drizzle of olive oil.
