Re: What’s on the menu!

Don't know about y'all, but while I love many seasonings, the preservatives in them cause me problems on a host of levels...

Often I found out what's in them and just buy those seasonings and learn to make my own blend...

While I normally only season steaks with Sea Salt and Milled Black Pepper, lately, I've taken Economy Ribeye to another level with a Carne Asada blend...

  • 1 Tbsp Sea Salt (Course)

  • 1 Tbsp Black Pepper (Milled)

  • 1 Lime (Zest Only)

  • 1 Lemon (Zest Only)

  • 1 Orange (Zest Only) *Optional

  • 1 Tbsp Chili Powder

  • 2 Tbsp Garlic (4 Cloves Minced)

  • 1 Tbsp Cumin (Ground)

  • 2 Tbsp Cilantro (Ground Coriander Seed)

  • 1 tsp Paprika (Smoked/Spanish)

  • 1 tsp Oregano (Dried)

Now, while many Carne Asada recipes or for a wet marinade, I prefer the dry rub method as more seasoning seems to get absorb into the filet...

Take the seasonings and ground them in a Mortar and Pestle; rub them into your (Ribeye) at least 1-1/2 hrs before grilling (longer, better); really massage the rub into them...

Now I allow my meat, Sean, to come to room temp, if I've refrigerated for a longer time with rub, at least 1/2 hour before grilling...

Now depending on whether you Sear & Grill (Before) or do a Reverse Sear (After), when you do use oil, lightly coat with

  • 2 Tbsp Avocado Oil

  • 2 Tbsp LOL Olive Oil and Sea Salt Blend

And if you already don't know, once you've cooked your steak to desired temp, always let it rest about 10~15 minutes before eating...

Thank me later...

It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

Thanks JP. I Appreciate the help and support and I’ll use your tips. Along with these, my main enemy is beer. I got way too comfy sitting on my ass and drinking freely during harsh winters here and the COVID shutdown. It also goes back to my California time when my boss had no problems with the two drink lunch theory. It’s made me about 50 LBs overweight.
