Paul Bunyan Steak Recipes

THE MAGNOLIA BLOSSOM PEOPLES CHOICE STEAK RECIPE

Steps:

• Sprinkle a little of all spices on both sides of each steak. Rub in well. Drizzle some oil on top of each steak and rub into the steak. Repeat with the other side.
• After applying spices, stack steaks in shallow pan and cover. Place in refrigerator. Allow to marinate for a minimum of 4 hours. In some cases, you may want to marinate overnight. Let steaks set at room temperature for 30 minutes before cooking.
• Cooking the Steaks:
• Let your charcoal burn down on your favorite cooker for about 1 hour until the coals are good and white. Get the cooker to 350 degrees F for optimum cooking temperature.
• Place steaks on grill, close lid and let them cook for 6 to 8 minutes before turning. You are hoping to get good grill marks on the steaks at this time. After turning, cook to desired doneness. This is usually another 5 to 7 minutes.
• After cooking to desired doneness, remove steaks from grill and place in aluminum pan and cover and seal the pan with foil. Place this in a warmer or on a warm part of the grill for 5 to 10 minutes. This seals in the juices and increases the tenderness.
