Description

This Grilled New York Strip Steak recipe delivers a perfectly seared, juicy, and flavorful steak using a simple dry brining technique and direct grilling over high heat. Ideal for steak lovers craving a classic American dish with a beautifully caramelized crust and tender interior.

Ingredients

Steaks

  • 2 (1-inch thick) New York strip steaks

Seasonings

  • Sea salt
  • Garlic powder
  • Black pepper

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Steaks: Remove the steaks from their packaging and place them on a plate or cutting board. Pat them dry with paper towels if there is any moisture on the surface to ensure a good sear.
  2. Season the Steaks: Sprinkle both sides of each steak liberally with sea salt, garlic powder, and black pepper to season the meat thoroughly.
  3. Dry Brine (Optional): Refrigerate the seasoned steaks uncovered for 1 to 24 hours. This dry brining process draws out excess moisture while seasoning the meat deeply, resulting in a juicier and more flavorful steak.
  4. Preheat the Grill: Clean the grill grates with a wire brush. For gas grills, heat to high (400-500°F). For charcoal grills, light the coals and heat until many coals turn white, then arrange coals to create direct and indirect heat zones.
  5. Sear the Steaks: Place steaks directly over the hot zone and sear for 2-3 minutes per side to develop a caramelized crust.
  6. Cook to Desired Doneness: Continue grilling the steaks, flipping every 2 minutes and also grilling the fatty edges for crispiness until the internal temperature reaches your preference (use a meat thermometer). For medium-rare, aim for 125-130°F; for medium, 135°F.
  7. Rest the Steaks: Remove from the grill and let them rest for 10 minutes to allow juices to redistribute before serving.

Notes

  • Use an instant-read thermometer for precise doneness.
  • Final cooking temperatures: Rare (115-120°F), Medium Rare (125-130°F), Medium (135-140°F), Medium Well (145-150°F), Well Done (150-155°F).
  • Dry brining enhances tenderness and flavor but is optional if short on time.
  • Grilling sides of the steak renders fat for added flavor and texture.
