Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
How to fry beef steaks on coals? Which part of the carcass is better to use for this? Premium steaks are ideal for cooking. They are made from the part of the carcass that is cut out of the bull's back. There, the muscles are less involved in the movement of the animal, which means the meat is tender and soft. Premium steaks do not need intensive pickling, it is enough to soak beef in a mixture of peppers, seasonings and oil to emphasize the amazing taste.
Step 2:
Prepare the steaks in advance, take them out of the vacuum packaging, dry them with paper napkins, wrap them in parchment and send them to the refrigerator for two or three days. Aged meat becomes juicier and softer.
Step 3:
Beef can be salted at the stage before being sent to the refrigerator, or skip this step and add salt when the steaks are ready. I usually salt already fried steaks.
Step 4:
Prepare everything you need for the marinade. Rinse the bell pepper and chili pepper. Remove the seeds and stems. Chili can be excluded from the list of ingredients if you do not like spicy. Cut the peppers into small pieces, so it will be easier to grind them in a blender.
Step 5:
Put odorless olive or vegetable oil into the blender bowl. Add the peppers, including the peas.
Step 6:
Grind until smooth.
Step 7:
Pour the marinade over the steaks, massage lightly to evenly distribute the pepper mass.
Step 8:
Put the meat in a bag and leave at room temperature for an hour or two.
Step 9:
Light the grill. Wait until the firewood burns out and the coals remain. Wash the grate and lubricate with vegetable oil. Place the marinated steaks on the grill.
Step 10:
After a minute and a half, turn the pieces of meat to the other side. For flipping, it is better to use forceps so as not to injure the steak and keep all the juices inside.
Step 11:
Cook steaks, turning them over periodically, to the desired degree of roasting. The steak is sealed on hot coals, a golden crust forms on the outside, and juicy meat remains inside.
Step 12:
Put the finished steaks on a flat surface and sprinkle with coarse salt (if you haven't salted before, step 3).
Step 13:
Cover with foil on top and leave this way for 5-10 minutes.
Step 14:
Serve with fresh or grilled vegetables and various sauces.
Step 15:
Cut the steak into portions with a sharp thin knife and sprinkle with finely chopped herbs.
Step 16:
Stunningly delicious and amazingly juicy beef meat cooked on coals is ready! Serve hot.
Marbled beef steaks have thin layers of fat, thanks to this, the finished dish is always very juicy, soft and stunningly delicious!
Bon appetit!
For this recipe, it is better to take not frozen, but fresh meat, otherwise the finished meat risks getting dry.
Any oils are useful only until a certain temperature is reached - the point of smoking, at which the oil begins to burn and toxic substances, including carcinogens, are formed in it. How to determine the roasting temperature and choose the best oil for frying, and which is better not to use at all, read here .
If you use ready-made spice mixes, be sure to read the composition on the package. Often, salt is already present in such mixtures, take this into account, otherwise you risk over-salting the dish.
