Best Garlic And Chili Rubbed Buffalo Steaks Recipes

GARLIC AND CHILI-RUBBED BUFFALO STEAKS

Steps:

• Combine garlic and salt in a small bowl; mash to a paste. Add chili powder, cumin, and sugar; mix well. Stir in Worcestershire. Arrange steaks on a plate large enough to hold them in one layer. Rub both sides of steaks with chili paste. Transfer to a zip-lock plastic bag and refrigerate for at least 4 hours and up to 2 days. Grill steaks on an oiled rack 5 inches over glowing coals, 5 minutes per side for medium rare. Transfer to serving plates and let rest 5 minutes. Note: Also great on beef steaks and chicken.

GRILLED CHILI STEAK WITH GARLIC-LIME BUTTER

Steps:

• Mix chili powder, cumin, chipotle powder, pepper, and cayenne for rub together in a small bowl.
• Place steaks on a large plate. Sprinkle kosher salt generously on both sides, then sprinkle rub over the salt.
• Twist 3 pieces of foil into 1/2-inch diameter rolls and place them under the steaks to act as a rack and lift the steaks up from the plate. Pop steaks into the fridge and leave uncovered to dry-brine for 3 to 12 hours.
• Meanwhile, place garlic and salt for garlic-lime butter in a mortar. Grind to a paste with a pestle. Add butter and lime zest and stir with a small spoon to combine. Set aside.
• Preheat a charcoal grill for high heat. Remove steaks from the refrigerator and brush with vegetable oil on both sides.
• Place steaks on the preheated grill and cook until firm and reddish-pink and juicy in the center and meat gently springs back to the touch, about 4 to 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C) for medium-rare.
• Remove from the grill and top with garlic-lime butter.
