Marinating:
In a re-sealable plastic bag or bowl combine the steaks and your choice of LBE seasoning blends.
Mr. Carne is our steak blend with horseradish garlic and rosemary simple ingredients for a complex taste.
Baja Joe will add intrigue and flavour like no other. Juicy Jerk and Bollywood Nights both are delicious on Rib Eye of Sirloin.
Lightly oil after adding your seasoning .
Salt can be added before your cooking time up to half hr before grilling or you can add sea salt
after cooking your steak.
Preparation:
Bring steaks close to room temperature 1/2 hour before grilling for more even cooking.
Heat a frying pan over medium-high heat before adding the steak (this seals the surface, trapping in juices).
Rather than oiling the pan, brush the steak with oil to prevent it sticking.
Cook a 2cm-thick piece of steak for 2-3 minutes each side for rare, 4 minutes each side for medium, and 5-6 minutes each side for well-done.
Turn the steak only once, otherwise it will dry out. Always use tongs to handle steak as they won’t pierce the meat, allowing the juices to escape.
To test if your steak is done, press the centre with the back of the tongs. The steak will feel soft if it’s rare, slightly firmer and springy when it’s medium and very firm when it’s well-done.
Transfer steak to a plate, cover with foil and set aside for 3-5 minutes to rest. This allows the juices to settle and the muscle fibres to relax, which ensures the steak is tender.
