Sugared Steak Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Preheat a grill to high heat. Mix the brown sugar, 2 tablespoons salt, and 1 tablespoon pepper together in a small bowl. Rub into the steaks and set aside for 15 to 20 minutes.
• 2. Drizzle the onion with olive oil and season with some salt. Grill on each side until soft and darkly charred, about 8 minutes. Set aside.
• 3. Grill the steaks on high heat until crisp, about 2 1/2 minutes per side. Set aside to rest for 5 minutes, and then slice the steaks across the grain. Serve over the grilled onions with a lime wedge.

Steps:

• Heat grill or grill pan to high.
• Mix sugar and steak seasoning. Pat steaks dry. Coat completely on both sides with sugar and spice blend. Wash up. Spray grill or grill pan and cook steaks 10 to 16 minutes, medium rare to medium well doneness. Let stand 5 minutes for juices to redistribute and serve.

Steps:

• Place steak in a large bowl. Knead sugar into meat to form a thick crust. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let sit at room temperature; 3 to 4 hours.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
• Cook steak on preheated grill until each side is caramelized, about 10 minutes per side.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil; place steak on prepared baking sheet.
• Roast in the preheated oven until steak is starting to firm and is reddish-pink and juicy in the center, about 20 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C). Remove from oven and let rest for 15 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Mix dry ingredients together.
• Dry rub sugar and seasoning on both sides of the steak.
• Place on grill searing until desired doneness is achieved.
• Let sit for 5 minutes upon removing.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450; heat a nonstick ovenproof skillet over medium.
• Combine 2 tablespoons brown sugar, pepper, and salt in a bowl. Press sugar mixture onto both sides of steak, then sear meat on one side until browned, about 5 minutes. Flip steak and brown second side for 2 minutes. Transfer skillet to oven to finish cooking (about 8 minutes for medium rare). Remove steak, tent with foil, and let meat rest 5 minutes.

Steps:

• 1. Mix sugar and salt together in bowl. Pat steaks dry with paper towels, and place in 13- by 9-inch baking dish. Season each steak with 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar mixture on each side. Cover with plastic wrap and let sit at room temperature for 1 hour or refrigerate for up to 24 hours. 2A. FOR A CHARCOAL GRILL: Open bottom vent completely. Light large chimney starter mounded with charcoal briquettes (7 quarts). When top coals are partially covered with ash, pour evenly over half of grill. Set cooking grate in place, cover, and open lid vent completely. Heat grill until hot, about 5 minutes. 2B. FOR A GAS GRILL: Turn all burners to high, cover, and heat grill until hot, about 15 minutes. Turn all burners to medium-high. 3. Clean and oil cooking grate. Transfer steaks to plate. (Steaks will be wet; do not pat dry.) Sprinkle steaks with 1 teaspoon sugar mixture on each side, then season with pepper. 4. Place steaks on hotter side of grill (if using charcoal) and cook (covered if using gas) until evenly charred on first side, 3 to 5 minutes, rotating and switching positions for even cooking. Flip steaks and continue to cook until meat registers 120 to 125 degrees (for medium-rare), 3 to 5 minutes, rotating and switching positions for even cooking. 5. Transfer steaks to wire rack set in rimmed baking sheet and let rest for 5 minutes. Slice and serve. KEYS TO: The Best Sugar Steaks To get the right mix of sweet and savory, follow these steps. 1.
