Ingredients

  • 4 1½ inch thick steaks filet, rib eyes, and strip steaks are all good options
  • 4 teaspoons Hey Grill Hey Beef Rub or equal parts kosher salt and black pepper
  • 4 Tablespoons salted butter divided into 1-Tablespoon cubes

Instructions

  • Prep the steaks. Take the steaks out of the refrigerator and set them on the counter while you preheat your grill for two-zone cooking. That means half of your grill is running on high heat and the other half has no heat (either gas or charcoal). If using a dome thermometer on your grill, your overall temperature will be near 350 degrees F. If you have a laser thermometer, your direct heat side will be 450-500 degrees and the indirect side will be around 225 degrees F.
  • Season. Season the steaks on both sides with the Beef seasoning or equal parts salt and pepper.
  • Grill the steaks. Place the steaks on the grill grates over indirect heat, close the lid, and cook until the steaks are 10 degrees away from your target temperature, flipping once halfway through. If you want to end with a rare steak, look for an internal temperature of 115 degrees F at this point. (Medium Rare = 125, Medium = 135, Medium Well = 145, Well = 150 degrees F). This will take approximately 30-45 minutes if cooking your meat to medium rare depending on how thick your steaks are. 
  • Sear. Transfer steaks to the direct heat to sear. Sear for 2-3 minutes per side until the steaks reach your preferred target internal temperature. (Rare = 125 degrees F, Medium Rare = 135, Medium = 145, Medium Well = 155, Well = 160 degrees F).
  • Rest and serve. Remove the steaks to the serving platter and top each steak immediately with the salted butter. Rest for 10 minutes while the butter melts. Serve and enjoy.
