Ingredients

  • 1 Ribeye steak about 12-16oz
  • 1 tbsp sea salt
  • 1 tbsp fresh black pepper
  • 1 tbsp cinnamon
  • Other: A grill that can smoke on low heat i.e. anything with a lid

Instructions

  • Light the Cowboy Hardwood Lump Charcoal in a charcoal chimney or mound inside your grill and let burn for 10-15 minutes. (Optional) Add 3-4 small pieces of hickory wood to the top of the charcoal for added flavor!
  • Once charcoal is hot, place in grill on one side and leave room so that you can add more charcoal/wood later. Close the lid on your grill and wait for the temperature to reach 225F.
  • While waiting, season the steak with salt, pepper, and cinnamon on both sides. When temperature is ready, place steak on opposite side of charcoal.
  • Let the steak roast for about 45-50 minutes (or until the internal temperature for steak is 120F). Make sure to add charcoal/wood chunks to maintain a consistent temperature!
  • Pull steak off grill and let rest for 10 minutes. While steak is resting, prep your grill to be as hot as possible!
  • When fire is ready, place steaks on grill for 1 minute per side. For cross grill marks, do 30 seconds on one side then turn 90 degrees for another 30 seconds. Flip steak and repeat process.
  • Slice, serve and enjoy!
