Ingredients

  • 2 to 3 pounds cowboy steak
  • 2 teaspoons sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon fresh cracked peppercorns
  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil

Instructions

  • Season all sides of the steak with salt and pepper.  Place on a wire rack set on top of a rimmed baking sheet and refrigerate overnight or for up to three days.
  • Allow the steaks to sit at room temperature for an hour.  Brush with avocado oil.
  • Preheat one side of your grill or griddle to medium-high heat. Turn the other side to low.  (You’ll want to build a two-zone indirect fire for a charcoal grill.)
  • Cook the meat on the cooler side of your grill or well-oiled griddle until it reaches 115°F for medium rare or 125°F for medium. Flip every 5 minutes. Depending on the size and thickness of the steak, this should take between 15 and 30 minutes.
  • Sear the steak on the hot side until the crust is lightly charred and the internal temperature reaches 125°F, flipping every minute.
  • Allow the steak to rest for 10 minutes before serving.
