Savor a perfectly seared steak with a rich, buttery crust, crafted using our premium beef tallow for unparalleled flavor and tenderness.
Ingredients
-
2 ribeye or sirloin steaks (1-inch thick, about 10-12 oz each)
-
2 tbsp beef tallow (Use original or any flavor for an extra kick!)
-
1 tsp sea salt
-
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
-
Prepare the Steaks: Remove steaks from the fridge 30-60 minutes before cooking to reach room temperature. Pat dry with paper towels and season generously with sea salt and black pepper on both sides.
-
Heat the Tallow: In a heavy-bottomed cast-iron skillet, melt 2 tbsp of Fat Brothers beef tallow over medium-high heat until shimmering, about 2-3 minutes.
-
Sear the Steaks: Place steaks in the skillet, ensuring they don’t touch. Sear undisturbed for 3-4 minutes until a golden-brown crust forms. Flip and sear the other side for 3-4 minutes for medium-rare (internal temperature of 130-135°F or 54-57°C).
-
Rest: Remove steaks from the skillet and let rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes to lock in juices.
-
Serve: Slice against the grain, if desired, and serve with your favorite sides, such as tallow-roasted vegetables, our OG tallow fries, or a fresh salad.
Tips
-
Why Tallow? Our premium grass-fed beef tallow enhances the steak’s natural flavor with a rich, savory depth and creates a beautifully crisp crust, elevating your dish to restaurant quality.
-
Doneness: Use a meat thermometer for precision: 120-125°F (49-52°C) for rare, 140-145°F (60-63°C) for medium, or 150-155°F (66-68°C) for medium-well.
-
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a skillet over low heat to preserve texture.
