Join Dean’s Texas Cuisine this summer as we head to A Bar N Ranch in Sherman, Texas! Follow Dean from grass to grill as he learns about different cuts of beef and teaches us the best way to dish them up using his Hasty Bake. In Episode 15, Dean and A Bar N Ranch Chef, Al Havens, are grilling up a prime-cut Wagyu Ribeye as well as grilled sweet potatoes served with basil chili butter. Put these two tasty items together and you have the perfect bite to cap off a Texas summer.
Grilled Wagyu Ribeye
Ingredients
Wagyu Ribeye
Salt & Pepper, To Taste
BBQ Spice Mix, To Taste
Directions
Cut your Wagyu Ribeye according to your preferred thickness. Dean recommends cutting into ½ inch to ¾ inch steaks. Then liberally season both sides of the steak with your Salt, Pepper and BBQ Spice Mix of choice. Let your seasoned steak sit out at room temperature for about an hour and then place on a grill set to the high setting. Cook for four minutes on one side and then flip. Cook for an additional four minutes. Remove from the grill and let the meat rest for at least 5 minutes.
