Grilled Hanger Steak With Smoked Veggies Barbecue Sauce And Southwest Chimichurri Recipes

CHIMICHURRI HANGER STEAK

Steps:

• Mince parsley, jalapeño and garlic and mix in a bowl with mint, oil and vinegar. Season with chili flakes, salt, pepper and cayenne until it has a kick. Reserve 3 tablespoons and add panko to rest.
• Butterfly steak with a sharp knife, slicing it not quite all the way through, so it opens it like a book. Lightly pound any thicker areas to make meat more uniform. Spread chimichurri-panko mix on one side of cut surfaces, fold other side over and fasten the edge with metal or wooden skewers. Coat outside of steak with reserved chimichurri. Chill 3 hours.
• Light grill or broiler and, while it heats, allow steak to come to room temperature. Grill or broil steak to medium rare, about 6 to 8 minutes per side depending on heat. Let rest 10 minutes, remove skewers and cut in thick slices.

GRILLED HANGER STEAK

Steps:

• For Arnold's beef rub: Stir together the margarine, granulated garlic, paprika, salt and pepper in a bowl.
• For the hanger steak: Rub hanger steak night before with Arnold's beef rub on top side. Let set, refrigerated, overnight.
• For the collard green chimichurri: Add collard greens, parsley, olive oil, vinegar, horseradish, salt, sugar, pepper flakes, garlic and 1 cup water to a bowl. Stir and let sit, refrigerated, overnight. Taste and maybe add salt and more horseradish to taste.
• For the jalapeno cheese grits: Bring broth, cream and milk to a boil in a saucepan, then add grits. Reduce heat to a simmer and stir grits with a wooden spoon. Cook, stirring every few minutes so grits don't stick, until grits start to soften, about 15 minutes. Add Gouda, Parmesan, butter, white pepper and jalapeno and continue to cook on low, stirring, until all cheese is melted and grits are soft and creamy, 10 to 15 minutes. Add salt to taste little at a time.
• Heat a charcoal grill for cooking with cherry wood chunks.
• Cook hanger steak on top of coals and cherry wood chunks until medium-rare. Thinly slice steak. Serve on jalapeno cheese grits and covered in collard green chimichurri sauce.
