Ingredients

🥩 One large T-bone dry-aged Alberta beef steak, approximately 2 inches thick, pre-brined with Black Truffle Sea Salt for 3 days
🧂 Black Truffle Sea Salt, brand unspecified, fine grind
🌿 Al Frugoni Chimichurri Spicy, prepared with olive oil and red wine vinegar
🫒 Olive oil, for chimichurri
🍷 Red wine vinegar, for chimichurri
🌳 Big Green Egg Hickory Smoking Chunks

Instructions

1- Prepare the Steak:

Brine the T-bone steak with black truffle sea salt on both sides.
Let it sit in the refrigerator for 3 days.

2- Grill Setup:

Arrange the Big Green Egg grill with the EGGspander system and Conveggtor.
Establish one zone for indirect heat and another for direct heat.
Add hickory wood chunks for that smoky flavor.

3- Initial Indirect Cooking:

Place the prepped steak on the indirect heat side.
Close the grill lid and monitor the internal temperature with the digital thermometer.
Cook until the steak reaches 105°F (40.5°C).

4- First Sear:

Shift the steak to the direct heat zone.
Sear to establish a crust, rotating 45-90 degrees for crosshatch marks.
Flip and repeat on the other side.

5- Sear to Perfection:

Continue until the steak's internal temperature hits 125°F (51.5°C) for medium-rare.

6- Rest the Steak:

Remove it from the grill.
Rest on the cutting board for 5 minutes.

7- Slice and Serve:

Carve the meat off the bone with the Dalstrong knife.
Slice into portions.
Generously drizzle with the Al Frugoni Chimichurri.
