Servings 1 serving

Ingredients

  • 1 T-Bone Steak
  • Course Sea Salt to taste
  • Ground Black Pepper to taste
  • 4 tablespoons Coffee Rub optional but recommended

Instructions

  • Heat grill to around 375°F (190°C). Season the steak with salt and pepper or your favorite spice rub and set aside.
  • After the seasoned steak has rested for 20-30 minutes at room temperature, place it on the grill over indirect heat.
  • Grill the steak over indirect heat for 7-10 minutes then flip and cook for an additional 7-10 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 115°F (46°C).
  • Once internal temperature has reached 115°F (46°C), place the steak over direct heat for 1-2 minutes per side or until you're 5 degrees under the desired temperature. (Example: if you want a medium rare steak, which has an internal temperature of 130°-135°F, pull your steak off when the internal temperature reaches 125°-130°F).
  • Once the steak has been removed from the grill, allow to rest for 10 minutes before serving to allow the internal temperature to rise to the desired level and for juices to redistribute evenly.

Notes

I wouldn't recommend marinating your steak.Marinating steak can cause issues of texture and rarely enhance the flavor. Because of the extra moisture from the marinade, the outside of your steak won't be able to get that beautiful seared look. It will remain unbrowned and dull in appearance. I suggest sticking with spices and rubs for the best results.
How Long to Grill Steak will depend on the thickness. If your steak is 1-1.5 inches thick, 7-10 minutes on each side should be about the perfect amount of time.
Let your steak rest after pulling it off the grill. This allows the residual heat inside the meat to bring it up to the desired temperature and keep the flavor and juices inside.
