Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lbs (907 g) beef chuck steak
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- ½ cup (113 g) unsalted butter, softened
- 1 tbsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- Salt
- Black pepper
Instructions
- Seasoning Preparation: Massage beef chuck with a dynamic fusion of olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper, comprehensively coating every surface for maximum flavor infusion.
- Grilling Ignition: Elevate grill to scorching temperature, establishing an intense heat zone that guarantees superior searing and caramelization potential.
- Searing Performance: Position seasoned meat strategically on blazing grill grates, executing precise rotations to craft impeccable cross-hatched exterior while developing deep, complex flavor profiles.
- Temperature Monitoring: Utilize meat thermometer to track internal temperature, targeting 135°F for medium-rare doneness and ensuring optimal juiciness throughout the cooking process.
- Resting and Finishing: Immediately transfer grilled chuck from heat, crown with aromatic garlic herb butter, then allow meat to rest 5-7 minutes, enabling natural juice redistribution and maximizing tenderness.
- Presentation: Slice beef chuck against natural grain, creating elegant, succulent portions designed to showcase the meat’s rich flavor and perfectly executed grilling technique.
Notes
- Optimize Seasoning Coating: Ensure even, thorough coverage of spices by massaging the blend into every crevice of the beef chuck, pressing gently to help spices adhere.
- Master Grill Temperature: Preheat grill to high heat (around 450-500°F) for perfect searing, creating a caramelized exterior while maintaining juicy interior.
- Check Meat Doneness Precisely: Use a reliable meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part, avoiding bone, to guarantee accurate temperature and prevent overcooking.
- Rest Meat Strategically: Allow beef to rest on a warm plate, loosely tented with foil, which helps redistribute internal juices and prevents moisture loss during slicing.
