NY Strip Steak with Dad’s Favorite Spice Rub

June 18, 2015 By Cooking Chat 9 Comments

NY Strip Steak with Dad's Favorite Spice Rub

When I refer to “Dad”, I’m usually talking about my father. But as I approach my tenth father’s day as a member of the Dad club, I figure I can claim the title in naming this recipe! Just in time for Father’s Day, I serve up this NY Strip Steak with a garlic cumin spice rub.

I’m calling it Dad’s Favorite Spice Rub because it is definitely my go-to rub. The rub provides enough flavor to make this Dad happy, but I also score some serious Dad points any time I time I feature this rub on a good piece of meat. My son loves it on steak, and also likes it so much on pork chops that he helped me give the Heaven Sent Grilled Pork Chops their name.

This NY Strip Steak with Garlic Cumin Rub could be a perfect choice for Father’s Day. Many Dads including me might like to do their own grilling on Sunday, but don’t want to get into anything to complicated on our special day. Get this simple three ingredient spice rub working on the steak, put it on the grill, and boom, you’ve got a great Father’s Day meal. Yep, I think I just sold myself on making this Sunday.

Oh but wait, Father’s Day is about grilling, right? I had every intention of grilling this up this past weekend to serve on the blog this week. But we had technical difficulties with our grill, so this instead became a recipe for roasted NY Strip Steak with Dad’s Favorite Rub. Consider the recipe as presented your what to do if it rains on Father’s Day plan! This is easily adapted for the grill, however. Just grill the steak with the rub on medium high heat for 6 to 7 minutes per side for medium rare steak.

Wine pairing: A Cabernet Sauvignon or a Zinfandel would go nicely with this steak, I can say from past experience. I tried the 2011 Sinister Hand Columbia Valley Rhone style blend from Owen Rowe. It was OK, but not as flavorful or interesting as I would like from a wine at the price point ($29).
