When it comes to perfectly cooked char-grilled bavette steaks, this recipe is so simple with a steakhouse umami butter melted over top and sliced against the grain to a medium rare perfection for tender, juicy, flavourvul bites.
Place in a container until ready to use and chill in the fridge.
Prep the grill:
Light your coals and allow them to become 70% ashed over before prepping your grill for direct heat.
Arrange the coals in a pile in the center of the grill and open the air vents to allow for the grill to heat up.
Once the grill has heated to 425 to 475, clean the grill grates.
Prep the steak:
Pat the steak dry, trim if needed and season with salt.
Grill the bavette steak:
Place the steak over direct heat by placing the steak directly over the hot coals.
Grill for 3 to 5 minutes, rotating once while grilling before flipping and continuing to cook directly over the heat, rotating as needed to avoid flare ups, until the steak reaches 130F internally
Rest:
Remove fron the grill, place the butter on top and tent with foil.
Allow the steak to rest 5 to 7 minutes before slicing.
Slice thin against the grain.
Garnish with minced fresh parsley and season with salt and fresh black pepper to serve.
Notes
Ideal over salads, tacos, baked potatoes, or in sandwiches.The trick to this cut is the grain. You want to make sure that you slice against the grain on a bias. This slices the long muscle fibers into short strands making for the most tender bite! If you slice with the grain, this steak will be tough. If you're serving someone for the first time, slice this steak for them, that way they get even slices that were cut properly for the best experience.
