Ingredients
- 1 T-bone steak (about 700 g - 800 g)
- Salt and black pepper
- Grapeseed oil, for cooking
Smoked beef fat vinaigrette
- 125 ml (½ cup) smoked beef fat (see note)
- 200 g French shallots, peeled and finely chopped
- 2 tbsp chopped flat–leaf parsley
- 1 lemon, juiced
Allow an extra hour to smoke the beef fat.
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 230˚C. Heat a heavy-based frying pan over high heat. Season the steak well on both sides and drizzle with a little oil. Cook the steak for about 5 minutes on both sides, then transfer to the oven and cook for another 5 – 10 minutes or until cooked to your liking. Remove from the heat and stand in a warm place to rest for about 10 minutes.
- While the steak is resting, melt the smoked beef fat in a saucepan over low heat. Add the shallot and parsley, season generously with salt and pepper, then stir in lemon juice to taste (about 1 part lemon juice to 3 parts beef fat).
- Cut the steak off the bone against the grain. Pour the smoked beef fat vinaigrette over the top and serve.
Note:
• To smoke the beef fat, place 1 cup beef fat in a heatproof bowl in a charcoal barbecue with a handful of wood smoking chips. Ignite the chips, then cover and smoke for about 1 hour.
