HOW TO COOK HANGER STEAK

Steps:

• Remove steaks from packaging and allow to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes.
• Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F.
• Rub steaks on each side with olive oil. In a small bowl, stir together salt, white pepper, and black pepper. Rub onto both sides of steak.
• Get an oven safe skillet heating over high heat. Add in 2 tablespoons of the butter and let melt. Add in steaks and sear 2 to 3 minutes each side. Add in remaining butter and let it melt as the meat sears, using a spoon to baste the top side of the steak with the butter as it sears.
• Once seared, place the skillet into the oven and cook until steak reaches an internal temperature of 120 degrees F, about 5 to 10 minutes.
• Remove steaks from oven and pan and let rest 10 minutes before serving. The internal temperature will continue to rise giving you a perfect medium-rare.

HANGER STEAK WITH GRILLED SALSA

Steps:

• Combine the mustard, paprika, chili powder, 2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Place steaks on a sheet tray and sprinkle all over with the spice mixture. Let sit at room temperature for 2 hours.
• Preheat a grill to medium-high heat and place a cast-iron pan on one side of the grill.
• Drizzle the corn, jalapenos and onion with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place on grill and grill, flipping frequently, until slightly caramelized and tender, about 12 to 15 minutes total. Let cool slightly, then roughly chop the onion and jalapeno and place in a large bowl. Cut the corn from the cob into the bowl. Add the tomatoes, garlic, cilantro, vinegar, lime juice and a drizzle of olive oil and toss well. Season to taste with salt, pepper and hot sauce. Let sit while the steaks grill.
• Drizzle the preheated cast-iron pan with canola oil. Cook the steaks, flipping only once, for about 12 minutes total for medium-rare or until an instant read thermometer registers 120 degrees F. Allow the meat to rest for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing. Slice the meat against the grain to ensure tenderness, and garnish with the salsa.

BUTCHER'S STEAK (HANGER STEAK)

Steps:

• Remove all silver skin and extra fat from the steak. Carefully cut out the connective tissue that connects the 2 halves of the steak, separating the whole into 2 long pieces. Cut lobe of meat from one half (it's a piece that is slightly separated from the larger half). Then cut each of the 2 larger halves into 2 steaks each. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Heat skillet over high heat. Add clarified butter when pan is hot, then place the steaks in the pan. Reduce heat to medium. Cook until browned on all sides, firm, and reddish-pink on the inside. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 125 degrees F (52 degrees C), a total of about 12 minutes. (This cut of meat has a sort of triangular shape, so about 4 minutes per side.) Transfer to a warm plate and tent with foil to let steaks rest and allow temperature to rise to 130 degrees F.
• Pour stock into skillet set over medium heat. Stir with a wooden spoon scraping up the browned bits from the bottom. When brownings dissolve and liquid begins to reduce after 2 or 3 minutes, reduce heat to low. Add accumulated juices from the meat, balsamic vinegar, and butter chunks. Cook and stir until butter melts. If liquid has reduced too much, add a splash of broth. Taste to check if sauce needs a bit of salt.
• To serve, slice steaks and spoon pan sauce over them.

HANGER STEAK

Steps:

• In a bowl, start the marinade for the hangar steak by blending the oil, vinegar, garlic, rosemary, salt and pepper blend and lemon juice and whisk together well. Place the steak in an 8 by 12-inch casserole pan and generously coat with the marinade. Allow to marinate for 30 minutes to 1 hour under refrigeration.
• For cooking, preheat a grill or chargrill over high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade, straining any excess marinade. Removal of the excess marinade will prevent flaming or charring of the steak during cooking. Place the steak on the grill and cook over high heat, 8 to 9 minutes per side, or to desired doneness.
• Remove from the grill and allow the steak to rest before slicing. Slice the steak on the bias, top to bottom, against the grain, 1/4 inches thick. Place the sliced steak over potatoes and serve.

SEARED HANGER STEAK WITH SALSA PICANTE

Steps:

• To tenderize the steak, poke the steak throughout with a fork or meat prongs. With a sharp knife, cut out and discard the sinew in the center of the steak. Season liberally with salt and coarsely ground black pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak and sear each side, about 3 minutes per side.
• To make the salsa, cut the onions into rings. Slice the chilies and garlic. Add onions to the pan with the steak, season with salt and pepper.
• Add the chilies to the pan, and add a little more olive oil, if necessary. After a few minutes, add the garlic to the pan. Drizzle with the vinegar. Continue to cook the steak until it is medium-rare, 10 to 12 minutes. Rest the steak on a cutting board for about 10 minutes. Slice against the grain, season with more salt, pepper and olive oil if desired, and serve with the salsa picante.
