Ingredients

Steak:

  • 3 Steaks Ribeyes or NY Strips
  • 2 tbsp Kosher Salt
  • 2 tbsp Black Pepper
  • 2 tbsp Garlic Powder
  • Onion Rings for serving

Confit:

  • 3-4 Rosemary Sprigs
  • 3-4 Thyme Sprigs
  • 4 Garlic Cloves smashed
  • 1 qt Beef Tallow

Hatch Chile Blue Cheese Sauce:

  • 1 cup Heavy Cream
  • cup Beef Broth
  • 3 tbsp Blue Cheese Crumbles
  • 2.5 tbsp Diced Hatch Chiles
  • 1 tsp Black Pepper
  • Kosher Salt to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat a grill to 275-300F for indirect cooking. Add a dutch oven hanging over the fire to preheat for 5 minutes (control the heat of the dutch oven by raising or lowering to the heat).
  • Add the beef tallow to the dutch oven and let melt (about 5 minutes). Next, add your rosemary, thyme and garlic cloves to the tallow to infuse for 5 minutes. When the tallow is between 120-160F, add the plain steaks to it making sure they are fully submerged and cook until they are 115F internal (about 10-15 minutes). Once the steaks are done & have hit temperature, pull them off and let them rest for 10 minutes.
  • While the steaks rest, build a high heat fire (around 400F) for searing on your grill.
  • Pat the steaks dry from any excess tallow and season on all sides with salt, pepper and garlic powder. Add the steaks to the grill to sear for 1-1.5 minutes per side until they are crispy. Pull the steaks off once done and keep warm
  • Next, add a skillet to the grill at medium heat (about 300F) to heat up. Add some beef broth and heavy cream and let simmer for 2-3 minutes. Next, add your blue cheese crumbled and hatch chiles. Simmer over the flames, stirring often, until it has thickened and reduced (about 10-15 minutes). Once done, pull off and keep warm.
  • Slice your steak and top with the Hatch Chile Blue Cheese Sauce. Garnish with chopped chives, serve and enjoy!
