Eversfield Organic: Steak on Grill
A steak on the grill at Eversfield Organic Dartmoor Inn, Merrivale
Many of us will have enjoyed the theatre of a night out at the Eversfield Organic Dartmoor Inn, Merrivale. You watch the chef sear your steak to perfection on the open fire grill from the comfort of your table with a glass of wine or a local organic ale from the barrel. The menu is 100% organic with everything sourced from the Eversfield Organic farm and Market Garden, or from a wonderful selection of small, local producers.
Drooling yet?!
In between visits to the fabulous Inn, you can re-create this delicious experience on the barbeque in your garden. Head chef Tom has put together the following instructions for you to cook the most succulent steak and impress your guests this summer.
1. Allow the steak to come to room temperature.
Leave the steak out of the fridge for approximately ten to 15 minutes before you're ready to cook. Allowing the meat to come to room temperature allows for a more even cook all the way through. If your meat is cold when it hits the grill, it can cause the muscle fibres to tense up.
2. Heat up your coals.
Light the charcoal on your barbeque and wait until the coals turn white before cooking. This will take approximately ten to 15 minutes.
3. Oil the steak.
Rub a generous amount of oil into the meat to ensure that perfect outer texture once cooked, and of course so it doesn't stick.
4. Season your steak.
The best way to do this is to sprinkle with salt on both sides immediately before popping on the barbeque.
5. Cooking times.
Pop your steak on the grill and sear for 3 to 4 minutes each side for medium rare.
6. Don't forget to rest the meat. This is the final, but most important part for your perfect tender steak, and it gives you time to dish up your sides and pour your wine! Rest for five minutes.
