Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Steak
-
Bring the Beef to Room Temperature: Start by removing the beef from the refrigerator. Let it sit at room temperature for at least one hour. This will ensure even cooking and tenderness.
-
Preheat the Grill: Light your barbecue and heat it to a steady 190°C (375°F). Keep two of the three burners on to maintain this temperature for indirect cooking.
-
Season the Steak: On a clean cutting board, generously season both sides of the steak with fine salt and black pepper. Press the steak into the seasonings to ensure it adheres well.
Step 2: Prepare the Roasted Potatoes
-
Wash and Cut the Potatoes: While the steak rests, wash the potatoes thoroughly, leaving the skins on. Cut them into wedges or spicier shapes, according to your preference.
-
Season the Potatoes: Place the cut potatoes in a large bowl, add 10g of extra virgin olive oil, and toss them well until evenly coated. Transfer the potatoes into a baking dish or tray.
-
Add Fresh Rosemary: Place sprigs of fresh rosemary into the baking tray with the potatoes. The rosemary will infuse the potatoes with a delicious aroma as they roast.
Step 3: Grill the Steak
-
Place the Steak on the Grill: Lay the seasoned steak on the barbecue in the area with the burners off. This will allow the steak to cook indirectly for about 70 minutes. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature—it should reach 50°C (122°F) for a medium-rare finish.
-
Prepare the Honey Mustard Glaze: While the steak is cooking, combine the honey mustard with 10g of olive oil in a small bowl. Mix well to create a smooth glaze.
Step 4: Grill the Potatoes
- Roast the Potatoes: As the steak cooks, place the potatoes in the oven at 190°C (375°F) for about 45 minutes or until golden and crispy. Stir the potatoes halfway through for even roasting. They should be crispy on the outside and tender inside when done.
Step 5: Finish the Steak
-
Apply the Glaze: Once the steak has reached the desired internal temperature, move it to the direct heat side of the barbecue. Using tongs, flip the steak and cook for 7 more minutes, basting the side facing up with the honey mustard glaze.
-
Final Glaze and Searing: Flip the steak once more, brush the second side with the glaze, and cook for an additional 3 minutes for a caramelized finish.
Step 6: Rest and Serve
-
Let the Steak Rest: After grilling, transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest for about 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute. This will ensure a juicy, tender steak.
-
Plate the Dish: Serve the glazed steak with a generous helping of the roasted potatoes. Garnish with a fresh sprig of rosemary, and enjoy the flavorful combination of honey mustard glaze and crispy roasted potatoes.
Pro Tips:
- Steak Doneness: Adjust cooking times based on how you like your steak done. For rare, cook for around 60 minutes indirectly, and for medium-well, aim for about 80 minutes before direct grilling.
- Alternative Glazes: Feel free to experiment with different mustards, such as Dijon or whole-grain mustard, to vary the flavor profile of the glaze.
- Extra Crispy Potatoes: For extra-crispy potatoes, increase the oven temperature to 220°C (425°F) during the last 10 minutes of roasting.
Enjoy your meal! This honey mustard-glazed steak with roasted potatoes offers the perfect balance of savory, sweet, and smoky flavors, creating a comforting and satisfying meal for any occasion.
