Broiled Sirloin Recipes

BROILED STEAKS

Steps:

• Blend together butter, thyme and mustard; season with salt and pepper. Place butter on waxed paper or parchment; roll into a log about 1-1½" thick. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate until firm.
• Trim steaks of any exterior fat. (Leaving the fat on will result in a lot of smoke in your broiler.) Pat steaks dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and pepper. Do not use your oven's broiling pan; it's too shallow. Pour 2 cups of salt into a 3" deep disposable roasting pan, then place a cooling rack over the pan. The salt will catch any drips and prevent them from flaring or smoking. Place steaks on the rack.
• Place steaks in a preheated 375°F oven for 6-8 minutes to bring them up to temperature. Turn steaks over and pat dry again with paper towels. Let rest 10 minutes while preheating broiler.
• Place roasting pan in broiler, positioned so steaks are 1-1½" from the heating element. Broil 3 minutes, then turn steaks over and broil another 3 minutes. Continue flipping the steaks every 3 minutes until center registers 125-130°F (for medium-rare), 6-16 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter and top each steak with one quarter of the compound butter. Tent with foil and let rest about 5 minutes before serving.
• Note: timing depends on how strong your broiler is. Place a slice of plain white sandwich bread under your broiler, about 3" from the heat. If your bread is toasted in under 30 seconds, you have a very strong broiler and should use the shortest times. If longer than 2 minutes, your broiler is very weak, and use the longest cooking times.
• Note: for 1" steaks, prebake 6 minutes and flip every 2 minutes. For 1½" steaks, prebake 8 minutes and flip every 3 minutes. For 2" steaks, prebake 10 minutes and flip every 4 minutes.

BROILED SIRLOIN STEAKS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the first 6 ingredients; rub over both sides of steaks. , Broil 4 in. from the heat for 7 minutes. Turn steaks; top with mushrooms. Broil 7-8 minutes longer or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°) and mushrooms are tender.

BROILED BLACK PEPPER SIRLOIN STEAK

Steps:

Sprinkle parsley over beef and vegetables.

SIRLOIN STEAK

Steps:

• Preheat oven on broiler setting. Make foil 'snake' out of aluminum foil to use to keep oven door slightly ajar so that broiler won't turn off if it gets too hot. Brush steak with oil and salt and pepper, to taste. Place a piece of foil on the bottom rack as a drip pan. Place another rack in the position above this and put the steak directly on this rack. Cook steak in this position for 5 minutes. Flip steak and cook for another 5 minutes. Move rack with steak to top position in oven, moving rack with foil and drippings just underneath, and cook for 3 minutes. Flip 1 last time and cook for another 3 minutes. Transfer steak to wire rack and rest for 3 to 5 minutes. The above times are for medium doneness. Adjust cooking times up or down as desired.

• 1. In a small bowl, combine the first six ingredients; rub over both sides of steak.
• 2. Broil 4 in. from the heat for 7 minutes. Turn steaks; top with mushrooms. Broil 7 - 8 minutes longer or until meat reaches desired doneness ( medium rare, a thermometer should read 145; medium 160; well done, 170) and mushrooms are tender

SIRLOIN TIP STEAK

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Place the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once melted, saute the shallots until transparent. Add the mushrooms and cover the skillet for about 5 minutes, or until mushrooms have darkened. Remove the shallots and mushrooms and set them aside.
• Pour a can of beef broth and burgundy wine over the same skillet. Increase the heat and bring the mixture to a boil. Continue cooking until the mixture is reduced by a third.
• Grill the sirloin tips to your desired doneness. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Let the cooked steaks rest on a plate.
• Once the sauce is reduced, add in the other can of beef broth and garlic. Bring to a boil and cook for 5 to 10 more minutes, or until the sauce has thinned, like au jus.
• Add the flour and stir until desired thickness is achieved. Stir in the mushrooms and shallots and season to taste.
• Spoon over the gravy over the sirloin tips. Enjoy!

HOW TO COOK TOP SIRLOIN STEAK IN THE OVEN

Steps:

• Prepare the steak marinade according to the instructions here. Marinate the steaks for 3-8 hours (but not longer). (Alternatively, you can simply season generously with salt and pepper and skip the marinade, but the marinade makes them so juicy!)
• Remove the steaks from the fridge about 30 minutes before cooking, to let them come to room temperature. Pat the steaks dry with a paper towel.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (204 degrees C). At the same time, preheat a cast iron grill pan on the stovetop over medium-high heat, about 3 minutes.
• Once the oven is just a few minutes away from being preheated, add the butter and heat until melted. Add the steaks in a single layer. Sear for about 2 minutes, without moving around, until browned with grill marks on the bottom. Flip and sear for 1-2 minutes on the other side.
• Transfer the pan to the preheated oven. Bake for 2 to 6 minutes, to your desired level of doneness. For a 1.5-inch (4 cm) thick steak, that's usually 2 minutes for rare, 3 minutes for medium rare, 4 minutes for medium, 5 minutes for medium-well and 6 minutes for well done. Use a meat thermometer to be sure - 120 degrees F (49 degrees C) for rare, 130 degrees F (54 degrees C) for medium rare, 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) for medium, 150 degrees F (66 degrees C) for medium well, and 160 degrees F (71 degrees C) for well done. Steak temperature will increase by an additional 5 degrees when resting in the next step.
• Remove the sirloin steaks from the oven and transfer to a plate. (Do not leave in the pan or they will be overcooked.) Let the steaks rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

EASY LONDON BROIL

Steps:

• With a meat fork, pierce holes in both sides of steaks. Place in a shallow dish. Add the onion, lemon juice, oil, garlic salt, thyme, oregano, celery salt and pepper. Turn to coat; cover and refrigerate 6 hours or overnight., Preheat broiler. Drain and discard marinade; place steaks on a broiler pan. Broil 6 in. from the heat, 6-8 minutes. Brush with butter and turn. Broil until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°), 6 minutes longer.

GRILLED TOP SIRLOIN RECIPE

Steps:

• Top sirloin grill temperature is a little nuanced.
• The best way to do it is to have two levels of heat: You want one side of the grill to be at around medium-high for searing and browning and the other at a medium-low level for cooking the meat through.
• If you're using propane, simply light two sections, one for each of the temperatures.
• If you're using charcoal, you can accomplish this by putting most of your coals on one side of the grill and leaving a few on the other side.
• Start by putting your steak over the medium-high heat and searing it for a good three to four minutes on each side.
• After that, you can move it over to the medium-low side until it reaches your desired doneness.
• Be sure to use thongs as using a fork will cause all the delicious juices to run out of your steak.
• The best way to check for doneness is to go by firmness.
• A good trick for this is to place your index finger to the tip of your thumb, forming a circle with your thumb and finger.
• Now use your other hand to feel the base of your thumb.
• This is what a rare cut would feel like.
• Now use your middle finger and thumb to form the circle.
• This is what medium-rare would feel like.
• Moving down your fingers, your pinky and thumb would be a well-done steak.
• It takes a bit of practice but using this method, you'll soon be able to tell the doneness of a steak by simply feeling it directly.

GRILLED TOP SIRLOIN THE RIGHT WAY

Steps:

• Choose your steak. Look for a bright red steak with minimal browning, as brown spots indicate the steak has been exposed to oxygen for long periods of time. While the top sirloin isn't known for being a particularly fatty cut, you should look for a steak with nice marbling throughout and a thin layer of fat across the top.
• The steak should be about 1-inch thick and cut evenly. If you can, chat up the butcher and ask him or her to cut you a steak to order.
• Since the steak already has a robust character and the grill will add some smoke flavor, I only use salt ​or kosher salt and ground black pepper for seasoning.
• Just before grilling, rub a small amount of olive oil on each side and hit the steak with coarsely ground pepper. Maybe use some minced garlic or garlic powder to taste.
• If you have the time, salt the steak 40 minutes to 8 hours before cooking it.
• Let it rest on a baking rack, uncovered, in the refrigerator if you're salting it overnight.
• Before hitting the grill, make sure your steak comes up to room temperature.
• Prep the grill (gas grill, outdoor grill, whatever you have) by getting it really, really hot. Keep the lid closed up until the moment you place the steak on the grill. You're looking for a hard sear to seal in the juices.
• Using a good pair of tongs, quickly lay the steak on the grill, protecting yourself in the event that the addition of fats and oils causes a flare-up.
• Set your timer and wait: in order to get a good sear, you won't want to move the steak for a few minutes.
• Cooking times vary based on temperature preference, but for medium rare: a 1-inch steak takes about 4-5 minutes a side, and a 2-inch steak about 9 minutes a side.
• When flipping the steak, always use that handy pair of tongs and not a fork. A fork would pierce the steak and let the juices escape. We went through so much trouble to seal in the juices with a great sear, so we don't want to let them out!
• If you're looking to create professional grill marks, turn the steak at a 45-degree angle a quarter of the way through cooking. Then flip at the halfway mark, and repeat the process.
• If you really want to nail your cooking temperature, feel free to use an instant-read meat thermometer.
• A medium-rare steak should be pulled between the internal temperature 130-135 degrees F.
• Now this is REALLY important: let that steak rest. Do not, do not (under any circumstances) cut this steak as soon as it comes off the grill.
• Resting it for at least 5 minutes allows the juices to redistribute within the steak instead of bleeding out as its cut, resulting in an amazingly juicy steak.
• Now that you have a perfectly grilled top sirloin, top it with an herbed compound butter or my personal favorite, another good pair - chimichurri. Served with a side of beautifully grilled fingerling potatoes and charred carrots, this is one cookout that everyone is going to be talking about for a while!

BROILED SIRLOIN WITH CHILE-ROASTED ONIONS

Steps:

• In a shallow glass dish, stir together the wine, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon chili garlic sauce or paste until the sugar is dissolved. Add the beef, turning to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 8 hours, turning occasionally.
• Preheat the oven to 400°F. Lightly spray a large shallow metal baking pan with cooking spray.
• Spread the onions in the pan. Drizzle with the oil. Stir to coat. Spread the onions in a single layer.
• Roast for 30 minutes, or until the onions begin to brown on the edges, stirring halfway through. Transfer to a small bowl.
• Preheat the broiler. Lightly spray the broiler pan with cooking spray.
• Stir 1/8 teaspoon salt, remaining 1 teaspoon chili garlic sauce or paste, and remaining 1 tablespoon brown sugar into the onions. Cover to keep warm.
• Drain the beef, discarding the marinade. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Transfer to the broiler pan.
• Broil the beef about 6 inches from the heat for 3 minutes on each side, or to the desired doneness. Transfer to a cutting board and let stand for 5 minutes. Slice the beef. Serve topped with the onion mixture.
