INSTRUCTIONS
Hello, Grilling Enthusiasts!
May is National Barbecue Month and is just in time to celebrate the start
of the traditional barbecue ("Bar-B-Que" or "BBQ") season. No matter which
way you spell it, backyards everywhere come to life with friends and family
waiting to feast on the pleasures of summer.
Memorial Day weekend (in the United States) is one of the most popular
barbecue occasions. Whatever the activity, the word "barbecue" usually
brings smiles to people's faces and pleasant memories to their minds. Part
of the appeal of barbecue is the diverse meanings it has for different
people, with all of its regional and local variations.
Combine unsalted butter, garlic, and parsley (or cilantro) in a bowl. Mix
until well blended. Allow to rest at least one hour before using.
Combine chile powder, garlic, cumin, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, sugar, and
Worcestershire sauce in a small bowl and stir to form a paste.
Rub steaks on both sides with paste. Cover steaks and allow to marinate at
least two hours, but not longer than two days.
Grill steaks over medium-high coals or over the fire in a ridged cast-iron
pan.
For a rare steak, grill for five minutes on each side; add grilling time
(in five-minute increments) for medium- and well-done steaks.
Top grilled steaks with garlic butter and serve warm with salt and pepper
to taste.
