Impossibly Decadent: Lone Mountain Wagyu Strip Steak with Rosemary Butter

Lone Mountain Wagyu Strip Steaks, Raw

We at Lone Mountain favor simplicity. We feel you can’t go wrong using high quality ingredients prepared simply. In particular with our Fullblood Wagyu NY Strip Steaks, the flavor and mouth-feel of the steak itself should be given as much room to sing solo in your meal, with minimal embellishments. You could very well prepare this steak with a dash of salt and pepper, or even Lawry’s garlic salt, and leave it at that; foodgasm would await. But for those that want to add a little punch and zing, here’s a special recipe for you. Enjoy!

Lone Mountain Wagyu Strip Steak with Rosemary Butter

Serves 4-6
Prep. + Cook time: 30 minutes

• 4 boneless beef strip steaks
• Kosher salt to taste
• Ground black pepper to taste
• 4 Tbsp Rosemary Butter

Take the steaks out of the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 20-30 minutes.
Prepare your butter while Steaks come to room temperature.

Rosemary Butter

• 1 stick of room temp. unsalted butter
• ¼ cup finely chopped fresh rosemary
• 1 clove minced garlic (optional)
• ½ teaspoon sea salt
• cracked black pepper

Makes 1 cup

Mix herbs and spices into butter. Can squish with hands in a bowl or use a food processor. Spoon mixture onto wax paper and roll into the shape of a log. Twist the ends to make log compact. Place in freezer for 30 min to harden. Move to refrigerator after 30 min.

Preheat the grill or cast-iron skillet on high heat. Season the steaks generously with Kosher salt. Place the steaks on the grill or in a very hot skillet. Do not overcrowd meat in a heavy skillet, use two pans if necessary. Sear for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare.  Cook time will depend on thickness of the steaks and the temperature of the grill.* Remove steaks from heat and cover loosely. Allow steaks to rest for five to ten minutes.

Serve the steaks with a slice of rosemary butter on top and serve immediately.

* P.S. Wagyu steaks in particular are best when served no further than medium-rare. We do not recommend cooking to Medium or beyond, but if you must:  To cook meat further set steak to side of grill away from direct heat.
