Salt Baked Steak – Cuso Cuts
You’ve probably heard the phrase “pheasant under glass.” But what about steak under salt?! A salt crust for food is where the edible is completely covered in salt, sometimes bound with egg...
Ingredients
- 2 Grass Fed Rib-eye steaks
- 2 cups non-iodized salt
- 2 eggs (whites only)
- ¾ water
- Dry herbs (optional-these are an aromatic element. Examples include Cuso's Grass Seasoning , pepper, and garlic powder).
- Set your smoker to 450F.
- Place the salt in a bowl.
- Add the liquids slowly, forming a paste. You can use water, wine, beer, or juice along with the egg whites
- You want the texture of a paste (not runny).
- Place a heat probe into your meat before encrusting it. You won’t be able to see it, so this ensures you get the cook desired.
- Cover the steak with the pre-crust “batter” on all sides.
- Put into the smoker for 15 minutes
- No matter the cooking method, flip the meat when the salt on one side turns brown. Pull the meat when the internal temperature reaches 125F.
- Let the meat rest in the shell for 5.
- Crack open the salt, then sear both sides of the steak quickly.
- Let it rest again for 5-10 minutes before serving.
- Enjoy the fun of cracking it open like Creme Brule in front of your guests.
- Serve!
