Servings: 2

Ingredients

  • KC strip steaks (2 (12-ounce))
  • Olive oil (2 tablespoons)
  • Salt (1 teaspoon)
  • Black pepper (1/2 teaspoon)
  • Garlic powder (1/2 teaspoon)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill to high heat, aiming for a temperature around 450-500°F.
  2. Pat the KC strip steaks dry with a paper towel to ensure a perfect sear.
  3. Rub each steak with a tablespoon of olive oil, ensuring all sides are coated.
  4. Season the steaks evenly with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
  5. Place the steaks on the preheated grill. Cook undisturbed for about 5-7 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until your preferred level of doneness is reached. For a well-done steak, increase the cooking time as needed.
  6. Once the steaks are grilled to your liking, remove them from the grill. Let them rest for at least 5 minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, ensuring a moist and flavorful bite.
  7. Serve the KC strip steaks with your favorite side dish, and enjoy the rich flavors of this classic Midwestern cuisine.
