Preparation
-
Prepare the Steak Rub
- In a mortar, combine the garlic, mushrooms, sugar, kosher salt, chili flakes and black pepper.
- Pound with a pestle, making sure to process the garlic and mushrooms to a paste.
- Stir in the oil and Knorr Ultimate Intense Flavors Wild Mushroom Earth Liquid Seasoning.
- The rub will keep for a week refrigerated
-
Prepare the Compound Butter
- Place all of the ingredients in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment.
- Process on medium speed to combine everything thoroughly.
- Transfer the mixture onto a sheet of plastic wrap and roll into an even log and refrigerate until you are ready to use it.
-
Prepare the Steak
- Massage the steak rub liberally into both sides of the meat. Transfer to a non-reactive container, cover and refrigerate for 24 hours.
- Remove the steaks from the fridge at least 3 hours before you plan on grilling it. Wipe off the excess rub.
- Prepare a charcoal grill. When the coals are broken down and glowing, place the steaks on the hottest part of the grill and sear on both sides until you achieve a nice char. Move the steaks now to the cooler part of the grill and continue cooking, flipping occasionally, until you reach an internal temperature of 48C for a perfect medium rare, about 40 minutes total.
- Remove the steaks from the grill and allow to rest for 30 minutes before slicing (the internal temperature will rise to 50C during resting).
- Serve the steaks with the compound butter and little pots of flakey salt for your guests to season as they wish.
- Stir some of the good olive oil and lemon juice into the resting juices of the steaks and spoon this over the sliced meats.
