Coffee Rubbed Flat Iron Steak
Coffee Rubbed Flat Iron Steak
Flat iron steaks have become a very popular cut at steak houses; charging a premium price for something that is relatively inexpensive to buy and grill at home. The cut comes from the shoulder top blade of the cow. It is comparable to flank steak and skirt steak. Since it is a thin cut, it cooks quickly; only 5 minutes a side for medium rare. They can be eaten as a steak and are also great for stir fry, sandwiches, tacos and fajitas.

The Perfect Grilled Ribeye
The Perfect Grilled Ribeye
Being a butcher, I’ve grilled thousands of steaks in my lifetime. My favorite cut is a ribeye. It is extremely tender and has a ton of flavor from the marbling in the meat. What most people don’t realize is that grilling a steak is about as easy as it gets to achieve restaurant quality. The most common mistake people make is constantly flipping the steak on a grill. Don’t flip it multiple times. It only needs to be flipped once, and that’s it. Let that steak sear to seal in the juices. Then let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing into it to let them juices redistribute into the steak.
Equipment
- charcoal
- chimney starter
- grill
Ingredients
- 1 ribeye 1 1/4” thick
- 1 tsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp steak seasoning or salt and pepper
- 1 tbsp butter
- 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
Instructions
- Rub your ribeye with olive oil. Season with your favorite seasoning. Let rest at room temperature for an hour.
- Get your charcoal gray in the chimney starter. Place the grill grate in the grill and let it get hot for a minute or two. Place the steak over the charcoal.
- Grill for 5 inures a side for a medium rare center; only flipping once.
- Pull off the grill and let rest for 10 minutes.
- While the steak is resting, melt a tbsp of butter in a small skillet. Add in the balsamic vinegar.
- Cook for 1 minute.
Thinly slice the ribeye and spoon over the sauce.
Walnut Burger
Walnut Burger
I know what you’re thinking. Why is he making a meatless burger?! Well, I’ve started to cut meat out of my diet a couple times a week for healthier lifestyle options. Surprisingly, these walnut burgers are pretty damn tasty. Walnuts happen to be high in fiber and a nutrient dense in protein and omega 3s. While higher in calorie from fat, studies prove that walnuts don’t increase the risk of obesity while replacing animal protein; making them energy dense. Garbanzo beans are considered a complete protein; containing all 9 essential amino acids. They are also high in fiber, minerals, and vitamins such a A, E, C, potassium, and iron. Ultimately, walnut burgers are a really good option to eating an animal protein based burger.
