- Windy City Prime Steak Seasoning
Instructions
Step 1
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place baking rack on top. Preheat oven to 265 degrees F.
Step 2
Drizzle a few drops of olive oil on meat and spread over entire piece so that steak seasoning sticks to meat. Sprinkle with seasoning.
Step 3
Place meat on baking rack and let sit until at room temperature (up to an hour).
Step 4
Roast steak in oven on baking sheet for 45 minutes to an hour. NOTE: Internal temperature should read 125 degrees F in order to serve a medium rare piece of meat. Meanwhile, turn grill onto high heat.
Step 5
Lightly oil the grill grates and sear meat for 2 minutes, then rotate 180 degrees and grill an additional minute in order to make nice grill marks. Turn steak to sear other side for an additional 2 minutes. Remove from grill and let rest 5 - 10 minutes.
