DRY-RUBBED RIB-EYE

Wrap each steak in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 24 hours, 2 to 3 days is better. This will make the steak taste like it has been aged.
• Preheat a gas or charcoal grill. Brush and oil the grill to loosen and remove any crud. Remove the steaks from the refrigerator about 20 to 30 minutes before cooking. Right before cooking remove the plastic wrap and lightly oil the steaks. Place the steaks on a very hot grill to put a char on both sides of the steak. When both sides of the steak have become well charred move the steak to a cooler part of the grill to continue cooking for 6 to 7 minutes per side for medium rare. Remove the steak from the grill and let rest in a warm spot for 7 to 8 minutes. Cut the steak off the bone and slice on the bias across the grain. Drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil and serve immediately.

BLACK POWDER RUBBED DRY-AGED RIB-EYE WITH BLACK GARLIC CHIMICHURRI, CRISPY PICKLED FRESNOS AND MELTING SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F.
• For the steak: In a dry pan, toast the sesame seeds, peppercorns, poppy seeds and mustard seeds over medium-high heat for 1 to 2 minutes, or until fragrant. Transfer to a spice grinder or a small food processor along with the salt, brown sugar, dehydrated onion and granulated garlic and pulse until finely ground.
• Completely coat the steaks in the black powder rub. Place on wire-racked sheet pan. Place in the oven for about 1 hour, or until the internal temperature reaches 115 to 120 degrees F. Heat a large cast-iron skillet or griddle pan over high heat. Sear each side of the steak (including the "sides") for 3 to 4 minutes a side, or until super charred.
• For the chimichurri: Pulse the parsley, cilantro, vinegar, red pepper flakes, black garlic, salt and pepper to taste in a food processor until roughly chopped, 8 to 10 pulses (scraping the sides of the bowl in between pulses). Transfer to a bowl and stir in the olive oil. Season to taste and set aside.
• For the melting potatoes: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. In a medium bowl, add the potatoes, butter, cinnamon and salt and toss to coat. Arrange the potatoes in a single layer on a sheet pan, then bake for 15 to 18 minutes. Flip the potatoes, then drizzle with the maple syrup and return to the oven for 15 to 18 more minutes; the potatoes should be golden brown with a nice crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. When ready to serve, arrange on a platter and sprinkle with the pecans and chives.
• For the crispy Fresnos: Bring the vinegar and water to a boil in a pot, then reduce to a simmer. Once at a simmer, take off the heat and add in the mustard seeds, sugar, red pepper flakes, salt and garlic. Whisk until the salt and sugar dissolve. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Combine in a glass bowl with the sliced chiles. Let cool and allow to sit for at least 30 minutes.
• Set up a deep fryer with vegetable oil and heat to 350 degrees F. Combine the flour and cream of tartar in a bowl, then toss in the pickled chiles to coat, dusting off any excess. Deep fry until crispy, 1 to 2 minutes. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate and season immediately with salt.
• To serve, using a sharp knife, remove the bone from the steaks and slice off the collar or spinalis. Cut into 1/2-inch slices. Slice the rest of the steak into 1/2-inch slices. Fan out the sliced meat onto a plate and sprinkle with some additional black powder rub. Drizzle with chimichurri. Top with crispy Fresnos. Serve with melting potatoes on the side.

• For the steak: Combine all the dry ingredients in a bowl. Use your fingers to make sure that all of the ingredients are evenly distributed. Rub the outside of each steak generously with the rub. Let sit for a few minutes.
• Preheat a saute pan or cast iron skillet over high heat.
• Lightly oil the steaks. Place the steaks in a very hot pan and get a good sear on both sides. Cook for 6 to 7 minutes per side for medium-rare.
• Remove the steak from the pan and let rest in a warm spot for 7 to 8 minutes.
• For the mushroom sauce: Drain the fat from the pan. Add the shallots and bring the pan to a medium heat and season with salt. Cook the shallots for 3 to 4 minutes and add in the garlic. Cook the garlic and shallots together for 2 to 3 minutes.
• Add the mushrooms, season with salt, and stir to coat with oil. Cook the mushrooms until they look soft and wilted, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Add the brandy and cook until it has reduced by half.
• Add the veal demi-glaze. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer and simmer for 4 to 5 minutes; the consistency should be almost as thick as gravy. If it is still thin, let it simmer for another couple of minutes until it does thicken.
• Check the consistency by coating a spoon with the sauce, turn the spoon over and draw a line down the middle of the spoon with your finger. If your finger leaves a track down the spoon without moving, then it is ready! Taste and adjust the salt, if needed.
• Slice the steak on the bias across the grain leaving a few bites of meat on the bone. Serve slices and meat on the bone over Crispy Smashed Potatoes and top with mushroom sauce. Serve with Glazed Carrots on the side.
• Place the potatoes in a saucepan filled with cold water. Salt the water. Bring the potatoes to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook until just tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain the potatoes.
• Heat the olive oil in a pan with high sides over high heat. Stir in the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Stir in the crushed red pepper. Add the potatoes and saute until beginning to brown. Lightly smash the potatoes and flip them to brown the other side. Season with salt and keep warm.
• Bring a pot of well-salted water to a boil. Set up a bowl of well-salted ice water. Blanch the carrots in the boiling water. When they are cooked but still have some crunch, plunge them immediately into the ice water. When cool, use a clean tea towel to rub the skin off the carrots. Reserve.
• To a large skillet add the butter, sugar, lemon juice, garlic, thyme, cayenne and about 1/2 cup water. Bring the pan to medium heat, swirling occasionally. When most of the water has reduced and the mixture seems homogenous, remove the garlic and add the carrots and stir until they are coated. Cook until the carrots are completely coated and hot, another 2 to 3 minutes.

DRY RUBBED BONE-IN RIB EYE

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the salt, brown sugar, red pepper, pimentón, garlic powder, and cumin. Rub the outside of each steak generously and evenly with the rub (if there's leftover rub, save it for your next steak). Wrap each rubbed steak in plastic and refrigerate for at least 24 hours.
• Preheat a grill.
• Remove the steaks from the fridge 20 to 30 minutes before you're ready to cook to allow them to come to room temperature. Remove the plastic wrap.
• Place the steaks on the grill and char them well over medium-high heat, 3 to 4 minutes per side, until they're really nicely browned. Move the steaks to a cooler part of the grill and continue cooking for another 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium rare. Remove the steaks from the grill and let them rest somewhere warm for 8 to 10 minutes.
• Cut the meat off the bone and slice it on the bias across the grain. Arrange the sliced steak and the bone on a serving plate and drizzle with big fat finishing oil to serve.
• ANNE ALERT!
• I like to give this steak twenty-four hours to really absorb the lovely flavors of the rub, but if you're in a hurry, even a couple hours will do.

DRY-RUBBED RIB EYE STEAK RESTAURANT STYLE

Steps:

• Combine all the spices in a bowl. Stir to evenly distribute all the ingredients. If you want to monitor the amount of salt, combine all the spices except the salt in a bowl. Add 1 tablespoon Kosher salt and stir. Taste the rub and then gradually add more salt to taste.
• Rub the outside of each steak on all sides generously with the rub and store any leftovers in an airtight container. Wrap each steak in plastic wrap two times, and refrigerate up to 24 hours (my preference) or at most 3 days. This makes the steak taste aged.
• Preheat a gas or charcoal grill until hot. Brush the grill to remove any left over food, then oil the grill. Remove the steaks from the refrigerator about 20 to 30 minutes before cooking and let them come to room temperature. Just before cooking, remove the plastic wrap and lightly oil the steaks with extra-virgin olive oil.
• Place the steaks on a very hot grill and char both sides of the steaks, a few minutes per side. When the outsides of the steaks have become well seared, move the steaks to a cooler part of the grill to continue cooking for 6 to 7 minutes per side for medium rare.
• Remove steaks from the grill and let rest in a warm spot for 7 to 8 minutes. Cut the steak off the bone and slice on the bias across the grain in slices to the thickness you prefer, up to 1 inch thick. Add the bone to the serving plate if you have folks who will appreciate it. If desired, drizzle the meat with extra-virgin olive oil. Serve immediately.
