Cast Iron Grilled Chuck Eye (Poor Mans Rib-Eye) Steaks W/Spicy R image

We discovered the Chuck Eye steaks a few years back at our local grocery store. The butcher recommended them to us. He calls them 'the poor mans rib eye'. They come out incredibly tender; you just can't beat them for the price. We prepare them many different ways, but this is my husband's favorite when he's in the mood for a spiced up steak. I highly suggest preparing them outdoors on a grill side burner if you have one, as the rub does smoke when cooked in the cast iron pan.

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup chili powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon dried coriander
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 teaspoons dry mustard
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
4 chuck eye steak (1/2 - 3/4 inch thick)
olive oil

Steps:

  • Prepare the rub by combining all ingredients.
  • Preheat a cast iron pan over high heat, and grill (or oven) to 425.
  • Rub each steak on one side with the rub. Brush over the rub with a light coat of olive oil.
  • Cook the steak, rub side down, until 'blackened', about 5-7 minutes.
  • Flip the steaks over and continue to cook either on the grill or in the oven, until medium rare (or desired doneness), approximately 8 to 10 minutes for a thicker steak.
  • Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
