Ingredients:
-
2.5 lbs steak, thicker cut, like boneless rib-eye, NY Strip, or the like
-
1 tbl ghee or tallow
-
6 tbl unsalted butter, chilled
-
2 tsp fresh thyme, oregano, or rosemary (or some combo thereof), minced
-
1/2 shallot, minced
-
1 tsp white wine vinegar
Directions:
-
Take the steaks out of the refrigerator at least 2 hours prior to cooking. Season aggressively with salt, immediately after taking out of the fridge. Meanwhile, mix all of the other ingredients together - a fork in a bowl works best.
-
Heat a heavy bottomed skillet (e.g., cast iron or the like) with cooking fat, just until smoking. Add the steak, turning the heat down to medium-high, and sear the steak for a good 3 minutes until a thick, beautiful crust develops. Flip the steak, put a lid on the pan, and cook for another 3 mins., for medium-rare (for medium, cook for another 4 minutes on the 2nd side). Take the steak out and let rest on a room temp. surface. Spoon a dollop of the herb butter on each streak as it’s resting.
-
Slice each steak after resting at least 5 minutes.
