Amarillo Grilled Steak Recipes

Steps:

• About 20 minutes before grilling, remove the steaks from the refrigerator and let sit, covered, at room temperature.
• Heat your grill to high. Brush the steaks on both sides with oil and season liberally with salt and pepper. Place the steaks on the grill and cook until golden brown and slightly charred, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn the steaks over and continue to grill 3 to 5 minutes for medium-rare (an internal temperature of 135 degrees F), 5 to 7 minutes for medium (140 degrees F) or 8 to 10 minutes for medium-well (150 degrees F).
• Transfer the steaks to a cutting board or platter, tent loosely with foil and let rest 5 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Five or so hours before dinner, assault both sides the sirloin with a fork with a wide-ranging, rapid-fire motion. We are looking for a tight pattern of 1/2" deep holes covering the whole target.
• Smash the garlic onto a paper plate with the garlic-smashing tool. Throw out the paper stuff, keep the mushy stuff that smells like pizza. (You are not a man if you don't taste it and learn the lesson not to.) Slather the mushy stuff onto the top of the sirloin. We are looking for full, thin coverage here. You'll probably only need 1/2 of a whole garlic for this.
• Put the meat on a plate, garlic side up. Pour equal amounts soy sauce and red wine on it and let it pool up on the top of the oversized meat. Put it in the refrigerator.
• Halfway to dinner time, scrape the garlic to the side of the plate (a putty knife works fine for this), pour the juices somewhere, flip the steak and re-apply both.
• At dinnertime, scrape off the garlic, pour the juices down the drain. Turn grill on high. Apply Steak. First: Searing. Give it about two minutes per side to sear the steak, sealing in the juices.
