Cowboy Steak and Whiskey Butter
Ingredients
  • 1
    tablespoon New Mexican chile powder or chile powder
  • 1
    tablespoon chipotle chile powder
  • 1/2
    tablespoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2
    tablespoon white pepper
  • 1
    teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1
    tablespoon Sugar-in-the-Raw
  • 2
    1 inch thick bone-in ribeye steaks, (about 1 pound each)
  • 2
    slices Whiskey Butter (see recipe below)
Directions

1. For rub, in bowl combine chile powders, paprika, white pepper, black pepper, and sugar.*

2. Prepare grill for direct cooking over low heat (about 300 degrees F). Meanwhile, let meat come to room temperature about 20 minutes before grilling. Pat meat with paper towels to remove excess moisture. Just before grilling, brush steaks with oil. Sprinkle about 1 tablespoon of rub and a little salt on steaks; pat in with fingers.

3. Place steaks directly over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes. Turn and grill 5 more minutes for medium-rare doneness. Remove from grill. Let rest at least 5 minutes.

4. Top hot steaks with Whiskey Butter. To serve, slice steaks. Makes 4 servings.

A steak of less than two inches thick is a sandwich ingredient. Two inches plus (aged beef) cut in thin slices on the bias is the ideal satisfaction.
