Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Steak:

    • Allow the steak to come to room temperature. Ensure the steak is reasonably thick (2-3 cm is best).

  2. Make the Marinade:

    • In a bowl, mix together 2 Tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp salt, and 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper.

  3. Marinate the Steak:

    • Coat all sides and edges of the steak with the marinade mixture.

    • Let the steak marinate for at least 15 minutes.

  4. Prepare the Charcoal:

    • Add enough charcoal to cover the base of the bowl with a decent layer.

    • Light the gas and open it fully. Allow the DuoKwik to burn until the charcoal starts to turn grey (approximately 10-15 minutes).

  5. Flame-Grill the Steak:

    • If grilling immediately, leave the gas on once the coals are ready, to keep the flames alive.

    • Place the marinated steak onto the grilling grid in the flames. The flames will ignite the oil and begin to seal the steak.

    • Turn the steak after about 30 seconds and continue to turn regularly to prevent burning.

  6. Finish Cooking:

    • Once the steak is nicely seared on both sides, turn off the gas and the steak should be rare to medium-rare.

    • Continue to cook the steak on the coals until your preferred doneness is achieved (medium, well-done, etc.).

  7. Rest the Steak:

    • Remove the steak and let it rest in a covered bowl or wrapped in tin foil for about 5 minutes.

    • For best results, stand the steak on its edge in the covered bowl to allow the juices to drain away from the meat.

  8. Serve:

    • Enjoy your perfect flame-grilled steak!




Bon Appetit!
