Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6-8 oz each) beef steaks (sirloin or ribeye)
- 1 cup Buffalo sauce
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 cup blue cheese crumbles
- 2 tablespoons flat-leaf parsley (chopped)
Instructions
Take the beef steaks out of the fridge and let them come to room temperature for about 20 minutes before cooking for even doneness.
In a small bowl, mix olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper to create a seasoning blend.
Rub the seasoning mixture evenly on both sides of each steak, ensuring they're well coated with flavor.
Preheat a grill or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the butter to the skillet or lightly grease the grill grates with olive oil.
Grill or sear the steaks for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare doneness (or adjust cooking time based on your desired level of doneness). Use a meat thermometer if needed—medium-rare is 130°F (54°C).
While the steaks cook, warm the Buffalo sauce in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Once the steaks are done, remove them from the heat and let them rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes to retain the juices.
Brush each steak generously with the warmed Buffalo sauce, coating both sides for that tangy heat.
To serve, sprinkle blue cheese crumbles and chopped parsley on top of the steaks. Serve any remaining Buffalo sauce on the side for dipping.
Pair with a crisp salad, roasted vegetables, or classic celery and carrot sticks for the full Buffalo experience!
