My wife called this a Fred Flintstone dinner. I think that's a compliment.
We really cooking with gas today...no, really. I haven't used my gas grill for at least two years so I take off the tarp and clean the cobwebs off for today's meal.
I want to use the gas grill mainly because it also has a side burner I can use for the sauce.
That sauce will be a sherry/garlic reduction.
The main thing with a meal like this is to get great ingredients. In this case, it's USDA Prime New York steaks that I found for $9.99 per pound at Costco.
INGREDIENTS
2 - 1 pound New York steaks (Prime, if you can, but at least Choice)
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1/4 cup sherry
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
About 3-4 hours before cooking, put the steaks in a sealable bowl. Sprinkle both sides with salt and pepper. Splash the top surface with Worcestershire sauce, seal the bowl and put in the refrigerator.
In a skillet big enough to easily accommodate your steaks, heat up the olive oil on med/high heat. Sear the steaks on each side for two minutes. You can also see why this is a good meal to cook outside with all the spatter.
Move the meat to the grill, about 300 degrees, and cook on each side for 6-8 minutes.
Back over in the skillet, put the garlic in the oil with the meat drippings. Stir in with the sherry. Use a spatula so you can scrape the meat bits stuck on the bottom of the pan.
Turn the heat down to low/medium and continue cooking as long as he meat does. Put the sauce in a bowl or cup and set aside.
When the meat is done, cover with foil and let rest for 10 minutes.
Serve with some of the reduction sauce ladled on.
